Like it was suggested: get your ATP and concentrate on that = only one thing to worry about and less headaches.

You could probably get 3 ATPs just to fulfill the basic requirements for an AOC and you have not flown you aircraft even once. If you have an airplane - again like it was suggested: put it on a 3rd Party AOC and you might get the odd charter now and then, however the onus is still on you, to service the aircraft according to the JAA requirements - you will end up spending more money than you are actually hoping to make, just in order to comply. Also remember, that YOU will not be flying a single hour for revenue unless you have at least a CPL and you are employed by the holder of the AOC. So adding all of this up: concentrate all your resources in obtaining the ATP for now.
