The only advice I can offer you is to have realistic expectations. It is the key to being happy in this business in my humble opinion. I was hired at 32, and while I may easily see the left seat in a narrow body aircraft (737, A320), I probably will never see the captain's seat on a 777. But that's ok, I'm more than happy retiring on the right seat of a wide, or depending on the life style, on the left seat of a narrow.

At your age in the US you will definetely see the left seat of an RJ, and possibly the right seat of a narrow; but probably not the left seat. So be realistic and honest with yourself.

Best of luck.
