PITA asked:
How old are you to start at the above airlines?

To say one is better than the other is very short sighted.
What are your goals in aviation?
Where do you see your self in 5-10 years? ( Like we can even project that)
Where do you want to work?
What type A/C do you want to fly?
where do you want to go?
1. I was 48 when I started with VS.
2. To enoy a lifestyle that allows me enough time off and earn enough money to enjoy that time off. Also, to enjoy flying the a/c type I fly and to enjoy my time downroute at the destinations.
3. In 5 years I see myself still flying the same a/c type but to be a much better pilot than I am now. In 10 years I see myself enjoying my retirement.
4. I want to work from anywhere that is within commuting distance, which for me now is LHR.
5. I wanted to fly the B747 and that's what I'm flying.
6. I want to go home after each trip, which is what I do, four or five times a month.

Hope that answers some questions.
