The full-motion upgrade

Feel the realism of a Category D full-motion simulator

Category D is the highest certification in civil aviation, the same standard airlines use to train real commercial pilots. The full motion add-on puts you in a hydraulic platform that pitches, rolls and shudders like a real Boeing 737, with engine startup, runway rumble and realistic turbulence, while your specialist explains exactly what's happening. It's the closest you can get to flying without leaving the ground and helps anxious flyers overcome their fear of flying.

Understanding the triggers of flight anxiety

Common causes of fear of flying

A fear of flying can be onset from a number of triggers. Some of the most common are below.

Turbulence

Unpredictable air movements are one of the most common triggers. Aircraft are built to withstand far more than the worst weather you will ever meet.

Claustrophobia

A fear of enclosed spaces can make the cabin feel overwhelming. Simple techniques and understanding the space help you stay calm.

Panic disorder

Anxiety-related conditions can surface in the air. Knowing what every sound and movement means takes away the unknown.

Loss of control

Handing control to someone else is hard, especially for self-directed people. Understanding how pilots fly restores your sense of control.
