Private Flight Phobias

A shirt for those of us who've had to confront the deeply embarrassing truth that commercial aircraft terrify us, despite having never flown commercial. The private terminals, the tarmac, the casual confidence of the pilots—all of it suddenly feels precarious when you're forced to consider it for the first time in your thirties. Therapy has been helpful. Your therapist thinks you should "challenge the thought pattern." You have not challenged it.

The irony of being afraid to fly in a Gulfstream is not lost on you, though you wish it were. Your mother finds it amusing. She still brings it up at dinner. You wear this shirt as a kind of apology to yourself for the specific, targeted anxiety you've cultivated without meaning to.

Unisex heavyweight tee. Runs true to size.
