Not sure if this is the right place to ask the question and it may well have been asked many times before, (please forgive a newbe), but I would appreciate some comments from you guys.

I seem to have been bitten by the flying bug and am wondering what the realistic chances of being employed as a newly qualified pilot in their early 40s in the UK are. In other words if I spend the time and money to get a frozen ATPL, am I likley to be able to pay off the loans etc with a flying career or am I living in a fantasy world?

A realistic view would very helpful, thanks.
