Don’t let these worrisome thoughts rule your life.
First: you can act despite your fear of flying and show it who’s the boss. Instead of fighting the feeling, accept it and go about your daily routine thinking and behaving as though you’ve overcome (победить, преодолеть) this phobia. Eventually (однажды, со временем) you’ll come closer to beating this fear.
Then, learn something about aviation. Many times, overcoming your anxieties is a matter of becoming more educated about the topic.
Visualize a calm, safe experience. A USA Today article explains that it’s helpful to envision (нарисовать в воображении) yourself going through the entire flight process, from arriving at the airport all the way to touching down safely at your destination. And of course, you can focus on flight safety statistics. International Air Transport Association (IATA) data indicate that 4.3 billion passengers flew safely on 46.1 million flights in 2018. Focus on flight safety, instead of the things that you imagined might go wrong.
