First post / question

Hi Guys,

Firstly thank you for the amazing information on here I have found it very informative! I like many on here are looking at becoming a pilot with the end goal Of mainline.

I am 30 yrs old with a partner and no kids, I have the ability to self fund my CPL over 18-24 month. As I understand this is the first step, can I get some members to please share what they have done from this stage to 1. Start getting paid for flying - what other qualifications do you need? 2. Any background work I can do (other than getting my CPL) considering learning Cantonese to help have a wider range of prospects... or anything that can make you more attractive to future employers

Please note myself and my partner are happy to move and adapt to this lifestyle/career change. Our only concern is income in 3-4 years time if we decided to have kids. Any help with this large amount of rambling would be amazing!
