NO WONDER…THE PLANE CONCERNED IS AN AIRBUS. DO I NEED TO WATCH THE REST OF THE GARBAGE THAT’S ABOUT TO FOLLOW? 27 MINUTES INTO THE […]
Hello Captain Keith, I would like to thank you for your help!! I had a wonderful vacation on Mexico! The flights were fine and believe it or not, i kind of enjoy it!!!! I’ve made a short film of the landing and im posting it here. You frase (sic) was always in my thoughts “Turbulence […]
Hi, You should talk to Capt Keith, because along with a huge list of fears, this was one of my fears. I believe there is a window in the cockpit which will open. If you have a chance then please go on one of the courses. I had not flown for 35 years and after […]
In Hong kong now and by god I did it! And I was so calm and collected even though it was a bit bumpy through most of Russia and half off China. I feel like an actual normal person now thanks to all you here and Keith in particular. But I got help: the incredible […]
To Captain Keith I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the huge help you have been to me. My parents live in Spain and other family live in Cyprus and Italy. Refusing to fly has caused huge problems over the years and a huge expense and time with travelling by boat and […]
Thank you Keith and Vivienne so much for the fear of flying course I attended yesterday. (November 19th) Reflecting on the day, the most important thing I came away with was I now have the ability (I almost typed ‘I hope!’) to trust the pilots in charge of the aeroplane. I have attended a commercial […]

I am 5ft 4 and I found the seat pitch very cramped compared to other airlines I have flown with in economy. Homeward 757 200 […]
At this time of the year I get flooded with enquiries about how the ‘bad’ weather affects planes. It’s a big subject which I shall be covering in detail on the subscription site soon. Like everything in aviation there has been a lot of effort put into keeping your flight safe at all times. It’s […]

Thank you so much for putting together practical information to help anxious fliers such as myself. I am now planning my next getaway! […]
A great in flight read Dr Alice Boyes’s Blog, Over the weekend I read a good little book called “Flying without Fear” (Now Fly without Fear) aimed at people who are anxious about flying. Its available in the Christchurch library system. It’s written by a pilot, Captain Keith Godfrey. It’s a quick read (I read […]
There was a report yesterday of a transatlantic flight having to divert because of injuries sustained by some passengers during turbulence. It seems that the passengers were not wearing seatbelts and that the Seat Belt Signs were not illuminated/on. This is a very rare and unusual combination of events if the report is true and […]
