What an interesting thread! I'm just 38 and thought I was doing pretty well...knocking on the door of 700 hours, ATPL exams all passed, just the IR to do.
So I went for my medical renewal...and failed it...seems I'm diabetic. No symptoms, no warning signs, just happened!
What it did for me was to make me wake up (even more than I think I am already). I still have a chance of getting the medical back...diet, exercise regime, change way of life etc etc.
If you HAVE a choice about continuing, I would say keep going. Cos one day fate might just stop you anyway.
For those that already have achieved the dream...don't become complacent about it...it might just get taken away again!
...if Steve Redgrave can do it, so can I!!
