Just about to make the biggest career change in my life. Military Officer to Commercial Pilot. This change means selling house to finance the training and will mean starting a new career and life from scratch in my early thirties with nothing "left in the pot" afterwards so to speak. Ahh yes and earning nothing for 14 months followed by (if I get a job) a 50% pay cut for several years.
I love flying, have a PPL, used to fly in the Navy before they put me on rotary and it all went a bit wrong! I turn 32 in August.
I am scared that I am about to completely
my life up royally.
Are there any career changers out there, who perhaps in their 30s made the switch to commercial pilot and are now regretting it? How much does the reality vary from the dream?
Any advice welcomed
Thanks
