I have to say this is the most inspirational post ive seen on this site for a long time , and it appears that your preseverence has paid off. Theres a saying isnt there, that if your patient you always get what you want in the end...
I too am in the IT industry and have been wanting to pursue a career in avaition since a was 17 (rejected by the RAF on eyesight grounds). I am now in my comfort zone earning good money , company car , house etc etc but am bored beyond belief ,and to be honest have been put off somewhat by many of the posts on various forums in pursuing this route, 9/11 etc etc etc.
Due to my current circumstances, this has tipped the balance for me personally and am now determined to take strides to pursue my goal.
If under your circumstances you can do it , then I certainly can (newly single , 60K equity in a property plus some savings)
If I wore a hat I would take it off to you big time,and agree with others that your post should be published in "The Flyer etc
The very best of luck in your career....
