We often talk about how control is the issue. On a plane, the pilot is in control, and that can cause anxiety. A person can be very brave when in control, and have great difficulty flying as a passenger due to the control issue.

Here is an email (I'll also attach a photo( from "Racer Bill" who used to have trouble with flying because of the control question. That's resoved now and he both flies, and still races.
