aliturnbull,
I am 36, slightly ahead of you though, I have the ATPL writtens and a CPL issued. I dont believe that your too old, but as you can tell from the respondants on the site that a majority are in there 20's to early 30's.
I have taken the plunge and never regretted it, a lot of things i would have done different, easy in hindsight as always.
My aim is to fly the right hand seat, and striving to reach a jet operator, however i am realistic to understand that i may be flying air taxi, instructing and the like first, I may be lucky and really hope i am in geting that first right hand seat job fairly quickly.
Be positive and if any of my previous last years experience can help you, drop me a private message
Keep flying, smile when you land , cos the ATC will be laughing at you
HAve fun
