Re: Fear Of Heights.......

[color=#000000]I have no fear of heights. Nor do I have a fear of falling from heights. I have a dreadful fear of the rapid deceleration at the end of a fall from heights.

My greatest fear would be, falling from the Moon, back to Earth!......

hi guys. i have a question for u airline pilots out there....is having fear of heights an important criteria or factor in becoming a pilot or in other words can a person be a pilot if he/she is afraid of heights?? i hope u guys will help me answer this question bcoz i really really want to be a pilot. it has been my ambition to be one since i was young n i hope it wont destroy my dreams of bcoming one just bcoz im afraid of heights...
i find it there's a simple logic as to why ladder-like heights may scare pilots, while FL300 will feel quite comfortable...
it all comes down to your visual points of reference - it's the "don't look down" thing
thanx again 4 the quick reply.That was a relief to hear from u........now i can go on to fulfil my dream of bcoming n airline pilot!!
