VH-ALX,
You're not too old to apply, but your chances of getting through the training are less than the younger trainees.
A lot of people said just that in this forum about a year ago. At the time there were three of us that had managed to get in, the oldest was 51, me at 47 and the youngest at 42. We were all determined to prove the naysayers wrong. None of us made it through the academy training. I aced the theory part, but once I got into the sim I just couldn't keep up with the pace.
You're in Melbourne by the looks of it, so at least you won't have to spend a fortune to relocate if you get in.
I say go for it and prove us all wrong
