They may be afflicted with acrophobia, aerophobia, agoraphobia, stenophobia or thanatophobia, but all share a common phobia: fear of flying. Two years ago Thomas Bunn, having spent more than 10,000 hours in the sky flying Air Force jet fighters and airliners, became ''hooked,'' he says, on teaching people like this to relax and actually enjoy flying.

International Quotas for Chinese textile exports have been agreed on by China and the United States, it was reported in Geneva by the correspondent of China's official press agency. The agreement would end a trade battle that strained relations and led to a sharp reduction in China's purchases of American farm products. (Page 1, Column 6.) Talks in Panama on a peace plan for Central America ended inconclusively as the foreign ministers of nine Latin American countries failed to agree on how to put the plan into effect. However, the ministers said that they had ''advanced in the process of negotiations intended to build a stable and enduring peace.'' (1:4.)

International No reduction in covert aid for Nicaraguan rebels is planned by the Reagan Administration, senior Administration officials said, following the House vote Thursday to cancel such aid by Sept. 30. The vote is not binding unless it is approved by the Senate and signed by President Reagan, which are considered unlikely. Administration officials dismissed the vote as ''partisan politics.'' (Page 1, Col. 6.) Cuba would halt military aid to Nicaragua if agreement is reached for all countries to stop sending arms and advisers to Central America, Fidel Castro said in remarks broadcast on American television. In response, President Reagan said that he was willing to give Mr. Castro ''the benefit of the doubt.'' Administration officials said, however, that the United States could not accept any agreement for the withdrawal of foreign military forces from Central America unless it is verifiable. (1:5.)

Nine nervous nations met in Panama City over the weekend to seek a way out of the Central American imbroglio before armed conflict spread. Soviet freighters reportedly approaching Nicaragua with arms shipments, American naval units beginning to maneuver in the same waters and massing of troops on the Nicaraguan-Honduran border gave the meeting an air of urgency.
