How long before you lose your skills?

[adriantan]

How long have you gone without flying for... without losing your skills? I haven't been able to go to the field very much though I'm still very much in love with this hobby. Just wondering how long it'll take before I lose all my skills so much so that I'll probably crash when I try to fly again. Scary thought! Better get some Simulator time training.

I once picked up the hobby again after 10 yrs or so... Managed to fly... though with jello legs. I wonder if we ever do lose the skill once we have it. Probably only lose the nerves like I did.

for me, if i didn't fly more then 3 days i will be crazy   because flying is he only way to relax ..... don't try stop more then 6 month i bet u will buy new plane after u fly, and simulator actually help alot.
