Honestly, this industry won't be viable or any fun for far the majority - my guess is 5+ years from now. At least. T&C's will hit rock bottom along with employment, and it takes time to improve those to a decent level - many companies won't improve.

Back in 2014 i took the decision to leave and study, as opposed to doing a TR in hope of a full-time job. Best decision ever. Today I work in a really exciting job - and fly as an instructor - for fun. Best part is, I'm actually having fun while I fly now. I didn't back then.

Don't hold back if you have the slightest chance for and desire to try another career. I was 34 when I did. Never too late and all that.
