I am mid 40s and taking the leap of faith to go career airline pilot. Not super interested in CFI route, but have not written it off. Yes, have 4 year degree, clean record and no check ride busts. Looking to get commercial, get some multi engine time and find a pipeline patrol, sight seeing or aerial survey type gig. Again, if those don't pan out, then i could move on and get CFI and CFII, but that is plan B.
