Thanks Spam Up for the advice,

My plan isn't to proceed immediately, especially as I have been reassured that I am not too old. I will just build my hours and more importantly my experience and then look toward taking the plunge. At the moment I have a great job, a brilliant boss and not a bad wage, but I have always wanted that coveted flying position. I was also thinking about instructing, but not to build my hours and then Foxtrot Oscar to an airline, but to actually use it in conjunction with charter work. I guess being a utility pilot and being multi skilled in what I do. I think that working in an operations and dispatch role has certainly tainted my view of the airlines, and there just isn't any appeal to me personally of sitting in a holiday jet for hours on end. People say I am mad , not wanting to fly an Airbus or Boeing, but to me I just don't see the fun in it.

Thanks
