About The Phobic Flyer
I've always had a massive phobia of flying. Whenever I went on holiday, I had to psych myself up for a few days to prepare for the flight. In 2013 whilst contracting at EE, my line manager (BC) offered to take me & my family up in a plane from Cardiff International Airport & I I finally got my Private Pilots License in October 2020. It wasn’t easy as the phobia would kick in during lesson & was really debilitating. I am also a keen VR SIMmer & X-Plane 11 has really helped me with real world flying, especially when flying a Nav for the first time as I can comfortably fly this with photo scenery & in VR at home. I am a CAA qualified Commercial Drone pilot under my Ltd Company, Ringtone.net Ltd & under this I also setup Severn FM Radio in June 2011 & this is still going strong. I am also a Reiki II practitioner & a licensed Radio Ham & I love playing the piano by ear.
Day job is Mobile Networks under Ringtone.net Ltd which operates this YouTube channel & The Phobic Flyer in general.
