a major marital breakthrough

So 24 minutes engine time. Still a resounding success! Just getting her
to get in the plane was a major accomplishment. And hell, any day you
get to fly, even for 20 minutes or so, is still a great day! :^)

Way to go, Kevin. I know it's been a tough row to hoe with her.


thanks Jay.

It was my anniversary present. 18 yrs now. She gets off cheap. Merely 24
minutes of stark terror. :^)

Who know? In three years, she may be getting her ticket!


Yeah right. I *doubt* that very very much. This is a woman who drove to
California from Mass to get to Hawaii. Because she didn't want to fly
that far! (true story)

When my wife first started flying with me (before kids), she would take
1/2 of a Dramamine tab. It made her so drowsie she decided she would
risk airsickness rather than the side effects of the drugs. She only
used one tablet out of the package. That was 20 years ago. Now, she
suggests that we fly places.

Has she sought psychiatric medical attention to lessen her anxiety?
Her life must be very painful for her to endure (not to mention those
with whom she is expected to interact).

That's unfair. For many, flying is terrifying far beyond "normal life",
and it's unwarranted to extend fear of flying to fear of ordinary life.

Take her to a hypnotist and see if that will fix her fear.

How many 'suggestions' can you fit into one session, I wonder? :-)
