Post Help, It's now or never...

Hi all
Just joined the site and would like some good quality advice and feedback. I am currently learning to fly at Rochester airport in Kent. I am 36.65 years old and have just completed 2 hours solo. I know
Hi all

I need to decide if I am making the right decision with regards flying, before spending a fortune.

It's early days in my training for my PPL, but I need to know if it is possible to attain a good career as a pilot? I am 36 yrs old, no formal qualifications though have had a good career in IT and management. It may be worth pointing out I seem to be adapting to flying quite well. I don't mind hard work if the rewards are there.

Kind Regards
Brian

About age issues, the latest PPRuNe thread is here.

It will answer some (if not most) of your questions .

Thanks MF

I'm sorry if my question comes up too often, though as you may appreciate, it's imperative to get the right feedback so precious time and money are not wasted.

OK, I've looked at the thread and it seems as if I can be in the running for paid work at some point, but doing what? Is it possible to work work a decent sized air liner or am I more realistically looking at taxing etc. Where can I find out what is possible and what isn't and more importantly, the best way to achive a particular goal.

Regards
Brian
