I had a trial lesson recently. I was really enjoying the experience for about 45 mins, and then my stomach had other ideas.
I had to use a sick bag. I was mortified. But it didn't faze the instructor who told me he'd experienced the same thing on his first flight... I thought he was just being nice. But then I see, on these forums, a few others have talked about suffering motion sickness. It's left me conflicted about taking lessons, but also curious.
In your experience... is it just a question of perseverance and allowing your body to adapt? Or have you found motion sickness is just a permanent hazard for certain people?
