The 60% lapse rate is about right from what I've read in the various flying comics. Don't you remember the days after you'd taken all your relatives around the block for an hour? What do I do now? £100 cicuits?I felt the same for a while (bearing in mind I have been an aviation addict since nappy stage) until I was working away from home, went back to the airfield where I'd done 1/2 my PPL and did an IMC and a twin rating. Both great fun and kept my interest going until a previous instructor and mentor pointed the way to cheap(ish) flying via the PFA. End result 2 years with an Aerobat and 4 years with the Cub. Now I get twitchy if I can't go and take the air above the ground bound ones.
