I have had the pleasure to fly with guys that have been out of the cockpit for a while.
Most memorable was the guy who flew in Vietnam and returned back home in one piece. Last time he flew was in combat.
We went out in a 300. The initial pick up was a little shaky but it all came back within 30 seconds. We had a great flight and it was as though he had never been away from it. I don't see why you should have any problems with basic control. As said previously though IFR stuff will be a little different.
Also flew with a guy who was a door gunner in Vietnam and wanted to get airborn again. He was a slightly different character all together............
