I started to get my ppl a few years back at the age of 38. I enjoyed flying so much that I decided to make a career change. I enrolled at a flight school, obtained financing and BAM!!! 9/11 hit us! I withdrew before ever starting due to what I felt was just bad timing.
So, here I am again. I have the resources, the motivation and the desire. But...am I too old? I think I may be right on the border line for a position as an airline pilot but as we all know there are many options available. Thanks.
