As Nik said.
I had almost 14yrs without yelling clear prop. Got my medical current and got an ASIC applied for, got it 2 months later went and did a BFR in the morning and was back in a C182 flying skydivers that afternoon. The actual piloting an aircraft is like riding a bike ie: you dont forget how to fly. I asked for a very thorough BFR, and got it. I happily paid for 2 flights of an hour each to refresh emerg procedures etc as well as a good ground testing/refresher on new/old regs' etc.

Get back up there you will not regret it.
