HeatherCFI
Pre-Flight
Hi all,
I'm glad I found this forum! I haven't flown in about 9 years and my plan is to get back into it this summer. I have my CFI and about 300 hours. I've renewed my CFI each year and I have an appointment made to get my medical. I can't believe I went this long without flying. School turned into Grad school which turned into working my tail off to pay for Grad school! I've decided that I'm not going to wish I could afford to fly again - I'm just going to figure out a way to do it. I would like to get proficient enough that I could instruct as a part-time gig.
Has anyone here had any experience with getting up into the air after a hiatus? Am I going to have lost all my piloting skills? I know it will take some time for things to come back, but I'm just curious what others have experienced.
TIA!
