Good advice?
Yes, hmmmm.
I think it will be a risky time for quite a while to train. It has always been a risk, but there we go.
If you did give up work and did an integrated course, it would be TWO years from now before you have the licence.
If you keep working and do a modular route, I guess you can DOUBLE the timescale.
You would then be 38 or 39, that is around the cut off point or so it would seem.
Adding to that, you seem to only want to live on Fraggle Rock.
That really limits your options.
Adding all your circumstances up, I would say don't bother. You will probably be left unfulfilled.
If you really wanted to fly, you would just go do it and not put too many demands on it.
Sorry if you don't like my opinion.
