Even though it’s a simulator, Stephanie is already stressed. In a few minutes, she will take off for a larger-than-life flight with the objective of overcoming her fear of flying. “I’m going to New Zealand soon and inevitably, I’m going to have to take the plane“, she says.
Let’s go for 60 minutes of flight! A psychologist accompanies Stéphanie during the flight, and will debrief with her at the end of the session. “We discuss, we exchange to find out if she has already had bad experiences, to find out if it has already gone badly and why“, he specifies.
Here, no simulation of turbulence: the goal is above all to get used to the environment of an aircraft. With this full-cockpit simulation, the goal is also to make people understand how an airplane works. Indeed, the many buttons on the dashboard can be scary!
At the time of landing, the face is tense, but the hour of simulation is quickly behind Stephanie. “I think that to realize that everything is thought out, it reassures, but I still have a little work to do“, she laughs.
“It’s a professional machine, and as it has a passenger cabin, it makes it possible to come with family and friends to see it. We also have two fighter planes, which allow other interactions“, concludes Pierre Van Walleghem, former pilot and owner of the Brussels Flight Simulator.
