This course was helpful only for the mildest cases. Recent research shows why. Breathing exercises are completely useless for fear of flying. Now, thirty-four years leater, this app uses the same useless breathing exercises. Apparently the people who put it together for Branson didn't bother to check the research. See research at: http://pn.psychiatryonline.org/cgi/content/full/42/13/25 There are effective programs available, such as the SOAR program, but this app is just old ineffective stuff in a new wr-app-er.
