daredevil
Pprune is bulging at the seams with threads on "am I too old"?
If you choose a name like 'daredevil', why are you asking?
I have refrained from posting on these topics before as I am certainly not that old compared with some of the old codgers who started later than many.
Me? I did my PPL in 1999 at the age of 44, liked it too much so did my commercial in 2000, am now 48 and have flown, and been paid for it, in Angola, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Algeria and the DRCongo (and still not been eaten by cannibals). I earn less than 10% of my previous earnings in Merry England and couldn't care less.
Adventure is a relative term, and so is flying (the best bit doesn't necessarily involve huge aeroplanes in the cruise but, to judge from most of PPrune, that is the only flying available - in fact only a fraction).
Oh, and Compton Abbas is still my favourite airfield in the world (hello Stuart!) - (with Bamiyan running a very close second).
In the immortal words of the ad, 'Just do it'.
