Would you be willing to say why you aspire to leave your medical career behind ? I'd imagine any interview panel would be quite curious about the answer to that so it's a potential issue. These interview panels and HR people are a breed unto themselves. And it doesn't take much to spook them.
Getting to be a doctor is no small accomplishment and likely has a more stable career path and income than being a pilot.

My experience with Skyborne is really poor, broken links on website, lack of communication, test feedback lacking information. I would have expected more considering the cost of the course.

Bogdan: I have recruited pilots on behalf of Ryanair. Your age is no barrier I can assure you. Indeed you would not be the first doctor / pilot in Ryanair. Demonstrate the appropriate level of KSA coupled with your maturity and I am sure you would do well. Good luck.

Very unsure what the current affair is with this training course. Skyborne has never advertised a start date publically, yet they have just signed with Easy Jet and immediately advertised a start date in May....
