Am I too old? (22!)
Hi folks -
I've gotten so much help from this forum, I thought I'd ask a quick question. (Or two)
I just turned 22 in December, and I should be done my PPL by this May. However, I signed up for aviationinterviews.com and from reading the gouges, it seems that at 21-23 most people are already applying to Regionals and have upwards of 1000hr TT. Should I be concerned that I'm getting into the game late? I don't plan on doing PFT so what should I expect? How did most people go about getting their ratings in order to instruct?
What route should I go? PPL - Instrument - CFI? ?
I'm assuming that I'll have to take out loans to pay for all my ratings up to ATP, is this correct?
I've reserved myself to take everything one step at a time and really learn everything I can rather then rush through it all - however there's an ever present voice in the back of my head saying that I dont have much time!
Generally, from PPL to 1000TT (Ready for regionals) how long does that take most people who go the "slow" route.
