Am I to old to fly ?
Hello from Australia.
I am going over to Canada to live within the next 5 months as my wife has been offered a job in Canada and I would like to continue my Commercial Helicopter flight training.
I have started my training in Australia an have 35 hours in a Robinson R22.
The job prospects here in Australia are slim to none, so I am having second thoughts about completing my CPLH anyway.
I am approaching 39 years of age, I am very passionate about becoming a Heli. Pilot and wondering if I am to old to be making a career change into this industry.
I know I have at least 25 years in the industry before retiring, but am I to old to be considering this as a career for me ?
How hard is it to get your first job in Canada ?
What sort of jobs are available to low houred pilots in Canada ?
Can anyone reccomend a good school in Canada ?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another option is to complete my training in the USA.
My wife is being sent from Canada to Florida at the end of 2005, all though this sets me back another 2 years.
Any suggestions.
