Dear all,

Six years ago, I failed the Cadet Pilot interview with Cathay Pacific Hong kong. Since then I earned my living with a job in finance. However, being a pilot has always been my dream career.

I am now 28 years old and have saved enough money to sponsor myself through getting a frozen ATPL from Australia. My question is:

1. Would a frozen ATPL help me in getting a job as a pilot with Cathay Pacific or Dragon Air in Hong kong?

2. I am 28 years old, and will be 30 by the time I get the ATPL. Is it too late to start in the eyes of the Hong Kong Airlines?

Please help me.
