Need some advice...

Hi all,

I have always wanted to be an airline pilot. I am 25yrs old and currently working in IT but on a low wage (sadly!). I have 60hrs training towards a PPL with 10hrs solo. But the last time I flew was years ago.. I stopped when I went to uni (to do IT) to concentrate on my studies and I have not been able to save any money at all. All my money has gone on cost of living expenses.

I attended the CTC McAlpine Tests for easyJet and JMC a few years ago for a potential sponsorship, but didn't get through. I really struggled with the group tests. I am aware that sponsorships are far and few nowadays.

I still really want to be a pilot and am looking for some advice really on the best way to persue this from my current situation/age.

Thanks in advance.

Mark.
