About the book: 2008 / A new book by civil aviation pilot Vasily Ershov, author of the bestseller "Airport 2008", reveals the essence of a phenomenon that has always existed in aviation in all countries of the world, but in our country is the object of special attention. This far-fetched, overblown phenomenon is figuratively called “airplane fall.” Many of us are very, very afraid of flying. Aerophobia does not act selectively, it affects everyone - women, men, businessmen, athletes, brave military men and even... the pilots themselves. The author of this book, who has a total flight time of almost twenty thousand hours, explores in detail the nature of aerophobia, explains in detail the essence of flight, analyzes the risks and possible emergency situations that may arise during a flight. This wonderful book puts everything in its place, and after reading it, much of what was previously scary becomes understandable and not at all scary..
