Being as I had my first flight several months ago, I too, was somewhat
nervous. However, I had complete faith in my husband. He, however, had
gotten his license when he was 16, before he even had a driver's license.

Knowing he had been flying for a long time, eased my fears as did my trust
in him.

Just tell her to relax, and if she starts to become scared, to bear down
with her stomach and believe it or not, just like a roller coaster, your
fear just seems to go away.

Flying in a small plane is just like an airline, and so much more fun.

Best wishes

I recently received my license and I am taking my somewhat nervous wife
up for the first time. I am aiming for a clear, reasonably smooth day.
Any suggestions for making this flight as positive as possible for her?
