Do you have a deep-rooted fear of flying, or would you simply like to be more relaxed when you get on a plane? In this informative and accessible guide, veteran airline pilot Captain Keith Godfrey and psychologist Dr Alison Smith welcome you aboard and take you through everything from take-off to touchdown, helping you to feel more confident and at ease when journeying by air. Many of the questions that trouble nervous flyers are addressed; for example:

* Why are there so many unusual noises during a flight, and what are they?
* How does an aircraft stay in the air?
* What happens if an engine fails?
* How effective are air traffic controllers?
