I get squirmy when I'm on a tall ladder or roof or something or when I'm hiking near a cliff, and I have 1,300+ hours in helicopters.

You don't feel it when you're flying.

when you're incontrol and flying, you do not get a fear of flying or heights.

A fear of flying isn't irrational, nor is a fear of heights if the height is high enough that a fall would cause you harm.

It's okay, OP, I fly choppers and mountaineer, and I'm terrified of heights. It's better if you're afraid of heights in both cases, honestly, as it keeps you from doing something stupid

> an irrational fear of flying and heights

I would say those are both rational fears.

No, a fear of crashing is rational.

That's just semantics, just like how a fear of heights is actually a fear of falling. A fear of heights is irrational when a fall from such low height poses no harm but is still feared. There aren't many cases of flying where a crash could be considered harmless so a fear of flying in general could be considered rational.

So which one is it.

Once the trees look like toys height is just a number on your panel.
