The thing I wrestled with, given that I am going to fund my training from the equity in my pad, is whether I want a hobby or a job.

So, do you want to fly, or do you want a job flying?

My 35K ish to get fatpl plus living costs will actually get me my PPL, more hours/ratings on top, and a share of an a/c.

I also get to keep the well-paid job I have at the moment and my wife can stop biting her fingernails and worrying about me pawning the kids...

The bottom line for me is the 'how do I feel?' test. I imagine myself doing my current job at the age of 55 and I feel - sick to my stomach.

So I want a job.

Same for everyone?
