My current Airline employer is going to do what it can to get me flying once I've finished the last of my training
Geeze, you would be the envy of many a young pilot here and you are worried?

I am looking at contingency plans just in case
If you are a truly valuable employee and enjoy where you are working why would you need this?

From an employers perspective, i just put on a retired bloke because he is useful. If he wanted to go on to become a commercial pilot it would be possible. He is 65. Age is no barrier to some.
