I have experienced the same problem as yourself AV8 and currency on type is an
important consideration
Its also a matter of prioritisation as above
Aviate-Navigate-Communicate
In the past I have wrongly been chatting to
ATC and/or doing routine checks changing frequency etc etc but NOT SCANNING
After 7 weeks if your brain cant handle
the workload then tell ATC to standby.
only Change one digit at a time COM/NAV.
break down the checks ignore them if neccessary COS IF YOU AINT SCANNING YOU'RE
NOT AVIATING. PERIOD.
