It's a stupid dream! Wake up!
Only a moron with no financial sense would do it. It will be fun in the beginning but then it becomes a job. A job that might pay nothing or close. Use your energy on creating some real wealth and buy your own aircraft. This industry consists of 50% flight whores who will do anything to carry the once respected title.
It's a cruel industry, and yes, you are too old. At least to old to make any logical sence out of it.
BTW: i have a job flying jets. I'm not a bitter wannabe.
