Hi Weymouth uk.
Although i already had my ppl and necessary hrs to start commercial training stowed away, I didn't start the professional training until i was 35yrs young. I did it part time so that the financial hurdle was more manageable and now have a jet job with a major operator, 2.5 yrs later.
It is possible if you focus, have support and, above all, enjoy learning and working hard!!
best of luck
