Well, I have a bonkers idea that I might have a second career in a RH seat of something (anything) once I've retired. I'm a police officer, so I'll have a jolly nice 2/3 final salary pension aged 52. I have a PPL and c150 hours at the moment. If I can still pass a Class 1 medical, I might just do the CPL/ME/IR & MCC and go for it. Plan B would be to instruct, and so if I didn't get a RH seat (because every company thought I was a grey haired old fart) then it wouldn't bother me, I'm sure I'd enjoy the experience of the courses and I'd still be perfectly happy.
