Seventy-nine staff aviators at the U.S. Army Aviation Center (USAANVC) participated in a 6-month test period in which they flew either zero, two, four, or six interactions of 47 FAC 2 contact and terrain flight tasks in the UH-1 aircraft. The results indicate that average level of performance in helicopter contact and terrain flight tasks is maintained after 6 months of no practice. The average level of performance does not significantly improve with as many as six practice iterations. These findings are true regardless of a) total career flight hours or b) whether the tasks are psychomotor or procedural. The results also indicate that overall checkride performance can be predicted reliably from performance on a small number of tasks. Additional research is needed to determine the amount of skill decay that occurs for a) no-practice periods longer than 6 months, and b) emergency, instrument, night, and mission-specific tasks not investigated in this research.
