Yes, I have a problem with flying sometimes, it mostly started after Sept 11th.
It's mostly due to feeling you would be helpless if something went wrong, especially mid-flight, tens of thousands of feet in the air. There would be nothing you could do.
In contrast, I sort of feel that if I were in a bus crash or train crash or-on the ground-I'd be able to brace my body in some way, prepare for the impact if you could sense something were going to happen.Still though, flying is fun, but a few months after Sept 11th I refused to fly home at Christmas because I was pretty afraid of flying, of that helplessness you'd have if something went wrong.
