This "app" is the same old stuff used at Pan Am in its course started in 1975 in a new wr-APP-er.

It didn't work then - except for the mildest of cases - and it doesn't work now.

The basis for the course, breathing exercises which - though useful on the ground - are useless for fear of flying in the air. The people who put this app together didn't even bother to check the research which is at: http://pn.psychiatryonline.org/cgi/content/full/42/13/25

There are programs that offer effective advanced help for fearful flyers. Unfortunately, this is not one.]]>Nov 4th 2009 4:53PM
