Irish air corps pilot then commercial pilot

Hi.
Im just thinking of the air corps firstly as a career but with the hope of getting a commercial airline job after 12 years.

I think the minimum service length officially is 12 years. I'm just wondering after that 12 years would you be able to get a job with an airline(ryanair, aer lingus, aer arann, etc ). In previous posts the "old pals act" as been referred to and im just wondering does this actually exsist.

If i wanted to become an airline pilot eventually would i just be better off going straight into it.

note: i am not just joining the air corps to become a airline pilot i would like military flying too.i know that it is very hard to even get into the air corps in the first place.

Thanks in advance.
