Default Aged 25 and planning to switch career to Piloting.. Wats ur suggestion?

Hi !

About myself, I have completed my Bachelor's Degree in Engineering in the major 'Electronics & Instrumentation' and have been working in the same field for 3 years in a decent job..

Wud like to know if its late for me to take up Piloting as my career, at this age of mine (25 yrs)... Please consider that I have to start from Ground Zero. My short term ambition is to fly one of my country's national carriers as a co-pilot (I am an Indian)..

Cud U please give a rough idea of how much more time it will take to become a co-pilot with an airline after completing my flying program in a flight school. ( as U know, I am already aged 25 and I might get married in 2 years and hence dont want my career to be in any sort of mess then.. hope U guys understand)..

Moreover, I am a short statured man, at about 5'4" and will this be an obstacle?

I am seriously interested in this profession as its my childhood dream and
the best guys to ask about these queries of mine are none other than U all..

Sincerely awaiting a reply ..
