I've always wanted to be an airline pilot, and I am hearing mixed opinions on whether or not it's worth it to start at my age.

I realize the mandatory retirement age is 60, so I know that if I start now, I only have about 22 years or so to fly commercial.

I'm not married, nor do I have children, so it's not like someone will suffer if I go to school for the next 14 months.

I've been looking at this Regional Air Academy in Phoenix. Anybody heard of it?

Thanks
