Not denying that can't be a good pilot smarty!!!
That is not the issue, however the odds of getting a job is closer to 0.01%, that is the reality and truth!
Apply the BA program when available, and if get in, good chance, other training will most likely be money lost!
Oh, why? Experience, I know so many, who don't even have age as an issue not getting jobs! Age will not put you first for sure!
Try if you willing to accept the real odds of not getting a job!
