Im looking at doing a modular course but my question is , ive currently just turned 30 and have a full time job. How long does it take roughly?
Roughly two years if studying full time, but doing it modular way you can finish either faster or slower. Firstly, in your position: I wouldn't become a pilot but alas, no one listens here in wannabes forums so secondly, I'd train (ha-ha) so that I could pay my training without a loan. Pay as you go and work while you study.

Pilot's pay is shte on the lowest ladders and yet it's extremely tough to land a job in the current climate. It's a race to the bottom.


Also am I mad for thinking about giving it up to pursue a dream job?
Absolutely.
