Any info appeciated, Just about to start ATPL route. 26 year old, with PPL, multi & IMC. Wondering if this 'is ' the perfect time to start, as the schools keep saying.

I believe in being at the right place at the right time.
Trained at OATS (509)
Went on to do a Flight Instructors Rating immediately after
1st interview/Job with BRAL. with 300hrs
PS After your traing you have got to keep going, don't stand still and wait for the jobs to come to you. Do a Flying Instuctors course and hour build, and at the same time churn those C.V's out. Good Luck!
