well, i've been reading all the corporate threads on what people say, but i guess i'm still crazy. i'm a 40 yr old guy who got his private at 18, flew for a couple of years, and then life took over. now 20 years later, i'm foaming at the mouth to fly for a living. i've got an asset management business that can yield a large amount of income, but i'm losing the passion to focus on what i have to do to make the income. i find myself at mercury aviation sitting in my car watching for hours all the corporate jets come in and leave. i picture myself sitting in the cockpit and flying the jet myself. i had a breakdown the other morning, (wife was giving the what for), and i decided to actually call one of these flight schools i look at everyday in my magazines. i want to go to flight school so bad and get certifications so that i can fly for hire i cant stand it. don't want the airlines, but like the corporate world. i am fortunate enough to know pilots in the airlines world and corporate world, so i know some of the ins and outs. after reading some of the threads on this site, it sounds scary that i even want to make a change. i've been around airplanes my whole life in some form or another, and it's in my blood. the flight school im looking at is flight safety academy in vero beach, and that makes it easier for me to talk my wife into the change due to the location. my friends in the business i have talked with have all been encouraging wisdom, and these friends have years of experience in the field. i guess the biggest thing that freaks me out is changing at 40 and starting over. i have come to the conclusion that making a ton of money doesn't really make me happy. doing what i love does. any suggestions and wisdom is much appreciated.
