I am toying with the idea.

I am not exactly young. I am 34, so a complete career change is a little daunting.

However I have looked into the military. I am single, so that much is on my side, as far as making such a decision is concerned. From what I've researched so far, I am too old for just about any flying in any branch of the military except to fly logistics (C-130's etc) in the Army. For that I have until 35 to make my decision.

My plan is to keep that idea on the backburner and get some flight lessons in the meantime. I turn 35 in April next year. I will make my decision around March, and if I decide to give it a try, whatever actual flight experience I have by then (hopefully I might have done my first solo by then) will certainly help.

If you have knowledge about the military route and have any advice for me I would certainly appreciate it.
