Hi John
I'm 38 and started flying in Jan 09. Completed 8hrs PPL then changed to Mircolight NPPL cause it was cheaper then convert to NPPL(A) then PPL plus gets me up there too. And I must say what a way to relax!
Gosh if I thought some airline would take me at my age now i would diff do CPL.
Go for it mate, live for the day!!!!
