Flying after a gap

In view of Covid 19, what precautions one must take or how to prepare for a flight without a sim session, if both the pilots are flying after a long gap(say sixty days)?

At the risk of being called a jerk: shouldn't any pilot be flying the same way ( SOP, crosschecks, scan, etc...), regardless of when was his last flight?






Just sayin'

That depends on what it says in Part A - quite likely a SIM would be mandatory after 60 days.

We would have to do a sim. However, if you haven’t flown for a while and don’t need sim, you just prepare as you normally would and let each other know you haven’t flown for a while. That way you know to be alert for more slips than usual.
