Virtual Flight is a multimedia simulation of the entire flying and flight experience from arrival at the terminal to arrival at a holiday destination. The virtual flight is broken down into 18 different sections to facilitate easy desensitisation at the speed that is correct for the individual.

The flying experience is emulated by a series of fullscreen photo slideshows with aircraft background audio during the flight itself (including the inflight announcements). Approx 100 photos taken on real flights were used to create the Virtual Flight. The quality of the images (1024 x 768) and stereo audio is excellent.

This flight desensitisation utility is suitable for:

  • flying phobia
  • simple fear of flying
  • flying anxiety
  • excessive flight stress
  • simply a dislike of flying

The image below shows the flight simulator's main menu (the menu would normally fill the screen):

How to use the Virtual Flight software utility?

For more detail in terms of how to use the virtual flight software as part of a systematic, exposure based desensitization treatment of phobias please see our training / usage notes pages. More...

Therapists: Enable your patient to enter into some form of relaxed state of mind and body, then gradually introduce material from the Virtual Flight encouraging relaxation / safety throughout. Proceed to the next section only when the SUDS for the current section have been substantially reduced, ideally to under 3.

Self-desensitisation: On a regular basis play the various sections at the same time as using some form of relaxation technique. Ensure that your breathing is regular and that you are doing something positive with your self-talk. Continue until your can experience the entire virtual flight without significant distress.
