15 Year OId Faith Is MY MOST NERVOUS PASSENGER EVER! | Can We Cure Her Fear? | Let's Go Flying 

I hope Faith gets the flying bug and takes lessons 🛩️

Yeah it really helped I have to say. I knew if I could just get her to stop overthinking it she should see it was all ok and she soon settled right into the flight. She did absolutely brilliantly and was a huge confidence boost for her.

Knowing what's going to happen before it happens is big. Surprises don't help a person's confidence. Great job.

I’ll pass it on! Thank you 🙏

Thank you! Yes, 07:30 wheels up! There was no way I was risking her having another bad experience when she loves aviation so much so I did everything I could to make it positive for her and I’m super pleased with the end result. Thanks for watching and leaving your feedback - it is much appreciated!

What a lovely comment. I have passed it on to Faith and she was pleased someone noticed she doesn’t swear. It’s something she’s quite proud of and rightly so. Thank you for the kind words as well, it means a lot!

What a nice comment. And so true.

@@LetsGoFlying I noted that too. No Blaspheming or bad language in spite of her evidently being terrified. She comes across as a well-mannered young lady and should be very proud of herself. Keep at it Faith!

Thank you, I’ll pass it on!

You can do it! I wish I did it a lot earlier! Thanks for watching again and taking the time to leave a comment, it is much appreciated Adrienne!

She’s getting there isn’t she! Really impressed with how she had a natural feel for the controls too! It’s very rare that someone get the hang of it right away!

Thank you! I’ll pass the message on to Faith too! She’s reading all the comments herself too!

Haha that’s so true she was happier flying the plane than Anna! Well spotted by the way - Anna and I spotted her go for the stick in the edit which shows she’s got a pilots instinct! I was actually really impressed when I saw that back! Thanks so much for the kind words, I will be sure to direct Faith over to the comments section later on!

Yea I saw that too, so cool :) I don't know if it was pure fear of death :D or a pilot's instinct, but nevertheless cool :)

Thank you! She did really well to get on top of her nerves like she did. She soon settled into the flight! Glad she did as she really enjoys it but the last flight left her with a bad taste in her mouth (pardon the pun 🤣)

Thanks Garry! She did great! We still need to get you on as a guest - it’s the video that nobody knows they need to see!

Yes it’s called Hawksview! Good luck with your lessons and thanks for watching!

PS: i am scared shitless from heights too by the way. cant stand at the window in my living room on 27. floor. but flying is different. well done for facing your fears. thats the best way to get rid of them.

I would be petrified to be 1500ft in the air in a space frame and grp 😂

@@itsmephil2255 🤣

Haha brilliant. I’ve passed it on to Faith for you! Thanks for watching!

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! Good to see you stop by, I hope all is well with you!

Thank you! She did great - really pleased she got stuck in with the flying too! Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment it’s much appreciated!

Thanks Rory! Yeah we went first thing in the morning about 7:30am wheels up I think I was! It’s quite thermic at the moment so that was definitely to be avoided where possible! Thanks for watching - hope all is good your end my friend!

Ah you spotted that too! I was really impressed when I saw that in the edit!

Thank you so very much! She’s getting more and more confident with each flight. I get why she had a blip at the beginning this time as last time was a real confidence knocker but fair play to her getting straight back up again!

Thanks Phil. She did great didn’t she! Yeah I was hoping Anna would have filmed it too except as it turns out she was actually in bed and couldn’t get to the garden in time 🤣

@@LetsGoFlying awwww maybe next time then

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment!

Thank you! I’ve directed her over to the comments to read all of the kind messages. Thanks for stopping by!

That’s a really good way of looking at it! She is reading these comments too by the way! Yeah she’s definitely getting there. I wouldn’t keep dragging her up if I think she hated it but she really enjoys it and wants to not be scared so just trying to work through it. I reckon another couple of flights hands on the controls and she’ll be hooked 😂

@@LetsGoFlying Just as it should be. Look forward to seeing Faith taking more flights with you.

That sounds like a lovely flight from a beautiful part of the world! Thanks for stopping by!

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for taking the time to leave some feedback it’s much appreciated!

Thanks Malcolm! I have passed on your message! She’s reading all of the comments too! Thanks for watching!

She’s a star isn’t she! Cracks me up every time 🤣

@@LetsGoFlying maybe push her to take some lessons to try out. I think, in the end she'd make a good addition to the pilot community:)

Haha no, no vomit! Yeah I inadvertently got some good shots of Congleton whilst I was orbiting! Thanks for watching Ste!

She is getting better each time she flies it’s great to watch and I thoroughly enjoy editing episodes with her in - they are very entertaining I think! Definitely get yourself up if you can! Good luck!

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment!

FLIPPPP! 🤣 - I’ve bought her a T-Shirt with a photo of us flying and her saying “FLIP!” as a gift 🤣

@@LetsGoFlying That's awesome!!!! What the hell is Flip anyways is that a British thing lol Maybe she wanted you to do Flip in the plane!!

Thanks Brian!

That’s quite funny actually as I had one made for Faith after that video 🤣

Indeed 🤣

The risk is very small mechanically - my aircraft is tested to +6 / -3 G so the airframe is insanely strong. Engine failures are extremely rare with the modern rotax engines too and even if you have one the stall speed of the aircraft is less than 40mph, so providing you’re a half decent pilot and don’t just fly it straight into a tree or power cable, there’s not a lot you can do to hurt yourself in one aside from getting yourself into a spin but that comes under the “half decent pilot” category. You’ve got to make a series of fundamental errors to even get into a spin in the first place and shouldn’t have a licence if you even get near to an incipient spin! Even then it’s entirely recoverable providing you’ve got the height to do so! If you take risks, you will encounter danger but flying on an extremely calm and still air day in a well maintained aircraft with a current pilot, you are more likely to crash on the way to the airfield than you are in that plane!

Same could be said of driving and boating. Learn, maintain the equipment, don't take risks, pay attention.

Do you also talk like that to people using cars? The States alone have 40 000 deaths per year in traffic. So driving is more dangerous, why you don't say that to everyone driving with you in a car? You do need to know whom you are talking to, is it a life long flying pilot or is it a layperson with 16 years old and nervous flyer. You do your surrounding a big disservice when you don't differentiate whom you are talking to. Also, we are not in a risk assessment here.

500 hours is an average of 10 years experience for most private pilots which I have gathered in just 5 years. Currency is king and I’m extremely current on type in a varying range of conditions from the mild to the extreme. The day in question was extremely calm with almost nil wind and blue skies. I pride myself on my attention to detail and how thorough I am as a pilot and I treat my aircraft and my hobby with the respect it deserves and never get complacent. Just because you don’t see a safety briefing on the heavily edited video made for entertainment purposes doesn’t mean it didn’t happen! If you watched my channel regularly you would know this and you would also know the answer to your own question.

lol no vomit this time!

What I meant to say was “Didn’t she vomit too?” Sorry for the misspelling
