Reply To: Why do people get nervous when they fly?

@DovidBT
In addition to renewing your medical certificate every five years, every 2 once your 40, you also have to take a flight review. Its basically another flying lesson with a flight instructor, in which he makes sure you are up do date with all of the maneuvers, straight and level, stalls, slow flight, emergency procedures etc.

You also need to do 3 takeoffs and landings every 90 days in order to fly passengers.
