## What is SOAR Conquers Fear of Flying?

SOAR – established in 1982 - has opened up the world to 10,000 fearful fliers. This program is now available as an app created by the leading authority on flight phobia: author, airline captain and licensed therapist Tom Bunn, M.S.W., L.C.S.W.
 

Other approaches offer partial answers. SOAR provides a complete answer - even for extreme cases - by controlling panic, claustrophobia, and anxiety automatically. 
 

App Features
 

• The G-Force meter proves - in turbulence - that there is no threat to the plane.
• Get immediate access to weather information and turbulence forecasts.
• Become an expert in how flying works and how safety is maintained.
• Know how back-up systems - and back-ups to the back-up - are activated if needed.
• Learn about safety systems that prevent pilot error.
• Download "Take Me Along" and let Capt. Bunn coach you step-by-step through the flight.

Why no panic button?
 

The panic button on other apps is nothing more than a recorded message. With SOAR, no panic button is needed. SOAR is uniquely effective. It allows anxious fliers to fly as others do by controlling panic, as well as claustrophobia and anxiety, automatically.
 

Why no hypnosis?
 

Hypnosis is an inadequate answer. Like relaxation exercises, hypnosis can help you achieve a relaxed state in a quiet, secure, and comfortable environment. It cannot produce or maintain that state in flight, which is a completely different environment.
 

What Others Say About This Program
 

I've been home for a week; I still feel a profound sense of personal power---a feeling of competence. I feel more centered. I keep waiting for this feeling to disappear but thank God, it hasn't. I don't really understand the internal psychological process that your SOAR course affected within me; however, I know it happened. I feel almost as good and comfortable about flying as I did prior to my fear of flying days. And if this could happen to me, I know the SOAR course can work for anyone.

==

Until I had taken SOAR I absolutely did not travel by airplane or step into an elevator because of being confined to small areas and the feeling of being trapped as well as the fear of not being safe. Now I don't even think twice about it! The course absolutely works. . . . Thanks for the enlightenment. Boldly going where I've never gone before!

===

Your course has been wonderful so far! It is so easy to follow and understand. I actually am looking forward to flying in two days! Thank you so much for SOAR - I'm glad I've discovered it!

===

There are no words to describe the impact. I cried, laughed, and sometimes my mouth just gaped open at hearing such new, concrete information about fear and fear management. Some of this information has affected all aspects of my life. Sound dramatic? It has been.

Unbelievable. Unforgettable. And impossible had it not been for SOAR. I only wish I had found you sooner. I was given your name by a client who took your course to help his occupation as a rock-n-roll tour manager. I said if it can help him, why not give it a shot? Many thanks for my new life.

===

Two years of psychotherapy couldn't get me into the air, but SOAR did. Your course has helped me acquire renewed personal confidence and pride.

### 1/5 — Go elsewhere

*2026-01-11*

I suggest taking flying advice from someone who is mentally stable and not the creator of this app. Just read his Substack, he shows how mentally unstable he is by becoming totally unhinged on politics. If he can’t keep it together over that, who would think that he could help you overcome your fear? He clearly lives in a make believe fear himself.

### 5/5 — Flight anxiety

*2025-04-26, version 1.0.9*

Tbh the one app that’s genuinely helped me with my flight anxiety. I always buy the turbulence charts before every flight, and they’ve been pretty accurate. Helps knowing what to expect

### 3/5 — Scrolling issue

*2024-05-17*

For those having an issue scrolling through all the content, the workaround is to select the text and scroll your finger down to highlight all the content. Double tap or hold down on the first word so it gets highlighted, then use the indicator circles that show up to drag and highlight the rest of the text. You can then copy the text and paste into notepad. Just a tip.

### 5/5 — I now love flying after 30yrs of extreme fear.

*2024-05-08*

I sadly spent 30yrs of my life in total extreme fear of flying, after buying this audiobook, possibly written and produced by the best person to actually write it, all my fears are now totally gone.

Listen to this expert if you want to beat the fear of flying and see the world.

Love the G-Force App which also comes with the audiobook.

### 2/5 — Used to be better

*2024-02-21*

I had this app several years ago, and it has changed. You used to be able to read the topics. Now you just get the first page and can’t scroll any further. Don’t bother paying, but it’s still good to use the G force meter to see how little shake is really happening in the plane. Last time I used this app I drove over some train tracks with it recording during my drive and WOW. That made a huge difference to my perception of turbulence movement.

### 2/5 — App needs update

*2023-10-02*

Text cuts off, other users complaining of no sound etc

### 2/5 — App Needs Update

*2023-03-28*

The app doesn’t scroll past the first page on the turbulence section or any of the other sections. The other things like  the turbulence meter and forecasting links work, but the app sorely needs an update.

### 1/5 — Audio didn’t work

*2022-08-28*

I paid and downloaded it.  No sound.  Deleted and re-downloaded the app and the course, still no sound.  I would like a refund.

### 2/5 — Good Basic Info- Don’t buy Course. No sound.

*2022-08-18*

I really needed the course I purchased but it has no sound. I uninstalled and reinstalled as per the app notes on the App Store.  Didn’t fix the issue. Sadly I lost $20. I left a message on the number provided on the app. If I hear back and am able to use the course I’ll update here and let you all know if it helped!

### 1/5 — In App Issues

*2022-06-01*

When selecting a specific topic, only the first page is visible. It will not allow me to scroll down the page to read past what is initially visible. This basically makes the app unusable for me.
