Dylan,
Actually is a good time to be looking. The regional airlines are hiring.
This is the growing part of the airline industry. This means the entry
level jobs are being vacated. That is where I am currently targeting. I
have had one interview and expect several more soon.
I am in my early forties.

Hi all,

I'm 36 years old and I'm wondering if it would be possible to become a
professional pilot. I've never taken a flight lesson - is it
possible, or am I dreaming?



Friend of mine got his first airline job, for Northwest Airlink, in his
40s. He probably started flying around his mid-30s. He's now a Captain
flying the Canadair Regional Jet.

Now's probably not a great hiring time for the airlines, but these
things are cyclical, and by the time you've enough hours hiring might be
up again.
