I was thinking about taking up flying, but
not sure if I'm too old. I'm 62. Is this a bad
idea or should I go for it?

Philip, If you have any known physical conditions which might preclude
getting a third class medical you could go directly to sport pilot.
Otherwise there are many pilots flying at your age and I know a few
who flew well into their 90s. Just keep an open mind and don't let
your ego get in the way of learning.
