I quit a regional and didn't fly for over 2 years after the birth of my triplets. To get current again, I went to ALL-ATP's and got my ATP cirtificate. I've been flying full time ever since.
Every once in a while I mull over going back or even getting checked out at the local club, but I usually can find better things to do with $300 than 1.5 in a C-172.
Went 5 months between dispalcement/furlough. Was a little nervous to get in the sim. Hadn't flown in a while, new airplane, new company. Like the other guys said, it comes back pretty quickly.
I have on occasion had vacation periods between 3 weeks and 6 weeks. I brain dump alot on those. When I come back after those, I feel like I'm in outer space for about the first 10 minutes of sitting in the airplane. Plus all the Jepp revisions that need to be done, arrgh.
