β€œAfter losing interest in airline flying as a career I finally decided to learn to fly for fun (as in potentially getting a PPL), I had a simulator session a year ago before being gifted two actual flying lessons, with my first one being yesterday. I felt it was a bit nerve racking at first but I don't think the weather helped with that, it was very bumpy and the plane did shake a lot. Also I felt really airsick for parts of the lesson.”

β€œOne year ago, I was afraid to take the controls of an airplane. I thought I might cause the airplane to come crashing to the ground. Yes, I had a complete and irrational fear of flying, which now seems comical. But after a super fun flight in Utah with someone who told me I needed to take control of the airplane we were in to learn how easy it was, and was extremely patient while teaching me, I realized I could do this.”
