A question to all the CFIs on the board who actually remember ---

How many hours in the right seat before you felt as competent in the
right as in the left? (In a side by side, not a tandem, Bertie)


Took me about an hour, I think.

I flew right seat for the first time in a couple of weeks and I felt
as co-ordinated on landings as a drunken penguin.

The rest (Steep turns, ground reference, etc) was smooth and exceeded
PTS Comm standards.

After about 8 stop and goes things smoothed out....


Yeah, doesn't take long for rust to set in! If I haven't flown for a couple
of weeks I find myself loking at stuff in the cockpit and trying to
remember what it does.
