Got for it! You're not too old. I know of people in their later 30's that hired into regional airlines and I've heard of people in their 40's that got hired. Hiring minimums are consistently lowering and regional airlines are in NEED of pilots right now! We all know that the airline industry is pretty cyclical so, if this is what you want to do, I's simply say... go for it!

One note, make sure your family is well aware of the changes this endeavor might impose on their 'their' lives as well. If they aren't already on board, getting them on board early is a great way to 'include' them throughout the entire process and making what is already a pretty stressful process a bit more enjoyable. Good luck!
