Although I am able to finance the cost of the training myself, I am concerned about the uncertainty of job prospects following this investment, and I am aware that additional investment may be required in order to secure a position in the right-hand seat.
You do yourself a disservice, plenty of pilots I know got their first flying job well into their 30s, their maturity an asset.
At 30 you are in your prime.
