Flying 101: Tackle fear of flying

You can tackle your fear of flying

  • Why do the wings flex and bend?

  • What are those strange bumps & vibrations?

  • Those 'ding' sounds .. is something wrong?

  • What are the pilots doing and how safe is it?

 

You have probably pondered these questions and more and you are not alone! Fear-of-flying is more common than many people think. It can range from a feeling of uneasiness on takeoff and landing, through to acute anxiety and panic situations. For some passengers this is so severe that it limits how often they fly—if they fly at all.

 

There is help at hand. We offer a unique simulated flight experience designed to address the typical fears and questions you may have. You will be introduced to airline flying in our aircraft cabin and simulated flightdeck, all with no risk and no rush. This is done in a relaxed, non-threatening way ... with plenty of time for you to ask questions and absorb the environment. And we have the advantage of being able to pause and take breaks as you need, while maintaining a realistic environment to address your anxieties.

  • Designed to address key fear-of-flying issues in an authentic and safe environment
  • See how airline flying actually happens
  • See safety systems and procedures in action
  • Fully guided by experienced instructors.
  • We specialise in putting you at ease and happy to answer your questions.

 

We've had great results, with our customers reporting an improvement in their confidence levels. Some have gone from not being able to step on a plane to flying regularly on domestic and international flights. Customers often report that we have helped to remove the fear of the unknown for them, increased their knowledge about flying, and bolstered their confidence.

the knowledge


to help you tackle


your fear of flying

 

After the experience at Simsation I’ve been able to go on a number of airline trips—for the first time in my life! I would not have been able to overcome my fears without the help of the time in the simulator, the information both intellectual and sensory it provides and without the staff who understood my needs and meet them in caring way

Where clinical services are required, or if you are unsure whether they are required, please consult your doctor or a local psychologist.

 

Simsation operates a 737 flight simulator in Hobart. The flight simulator is a full sized, complete replica of the flight deck of a 737-800. Once on board, it feels like you are really in the cockpit of a 737 - in fact a many of the controls actually come from a real 737!

 

This makes the ultimate gift! Absolutely ideal for that "hard to buy for" someone who has it all! A great birthday, Father's Day, or Christmas present. You can actually put someone in the captain's seat of a 737 simulator!

This is the ultimate adventure ... your chance to live the dream! You get to be a pilot and fly a 737. It doesn't get much better! Our friendly instructors assist you throughout and make sure you have happy landings ... and still let YOU fly the plane.
