I have this fear as well. I get the sensation that I am going to fly up into the sky. It is terrifying and the triggers can be different depending on where I am. I cant go to the beach or stay in open spaces for long periods. I ride a motorcycle sometimes and I cannot ride without a dose of Xanax. Driving in a car is fine but not a convertible. Things that have helped me are Xanax, wearing a hat with a brim and alchohol. I see a therapist almost every week just to try to find relief through counseling. I, like many others here, dont know the root cause and it only started up about 3 years ago. My therapist found this webpage for me. I lie to everyone around me because the truth of this phobia sounds insane even to me. I make excuses everywhere it happens. I also have had inner ear issues so maybe there is a link somewhere in there. Hang in there everyone. You are not alone. We need to form a support group and get this phobia out there. Who knows how many others suffer from this and most therapists dont even know what to call it other than "generalized anxiety disorder"
