I just couldnt get on the flippin plane, I was near screaming in a static display at Duxford and couldnt pick anyone up at the airport because I couldnt bear to be near anyone who had been on a plane, some of it was about breathing so it could have been claustrophobia but I was well used to lifts and underground trains.
It was a family joke, not so funny when the whole family were squished in a sleeper cabin in the bowels of a ferry to Europe, then it was "all my fault"
