Job Options

Hi All

What a bloody awesome website, I've sat for hours having a read of the various threads. My question is this:

At age 30, I'm considering going for my PPL, something I've wanted to do most of my life but have just never got the gumption to get on with. Being realistic, I doubt I'll ever sit in the Left seat (or Right seat for that matter) of a large commercial jetliner due to my age by the time I achieve suitable flying hours etc. So with this in mind, and with a PPL potentially under my belt, can you good folks advise on what my next course of action would be to realistically secure a job as a pro pilot? I'm not writing off the possibility of flying the big rigs but taking a realistic view of what career potential may be there and what further training I should take after PPL to get there. Hopefully it will amount to more than 'Flying Instructor'.

Thanks in advance chaps.
