Hi Nick
Im not saying it cant be done but you certainly won't have the same opportunities as younger guys (Im an oldie myself and started age 35 btw!). Some companies will rule you out straight away! (whether its legal or not!)
I'm not sure about the medical restriction..when would it be removed? If you are saying that you only can apply to G-reg operators when you qualify then I seriously think the cards are very much stacked against you. I think in betting terms you would be known as an "outsider"!
