Airline Pilot Career at Middle Age? Help!!! My husband is 45 years old and recently decided that he wants to start a new career as an airline pilot. I'm desperately trying to dissuade him because 1. The cost of training to become an airline pilot would bankrupt us 2. He is too old to start this career (he has never flown a plane before)! He is middle aged and I'm really worried he is in his midlife crisis (he denies it). 3. No airline company will hire him at this age. This fixed idea of his had caused us a lot of grief lately and I just don't know what to do anymore! Please help with good advice based on facts so that I can show him the responses. Hopefully this will help him come back to his senses.

What will happen to the career of "airline pilot"? When you look at flight technology as it is today, where will airline pilots be in 25 years? There is rapidly increasing automation in airline cockpits, to the point that a plane is essentially capable of take-off and landing (the two most complicated parts of flight) all by itself, and autopilot, which serves to maintain a plane's altitude, heading, airspeed, etc. has existed for many years. With the advent of unmanned aircraft, it is becoming increasingly obvious that pilots will soon be un-needed in the capacity they are today. I'm just curious; I've been an aspiring pilot for a few years now, and it seems that by the time I actually get there, most of the actual 'piloting' will have been taken over by computers. Now, it's just a matter of getting people to trust a computer with their lives, and the pilots won't be needed anywhere. (except on the ground, to take over in the event of failure). I'm just afraid that the career will get boring, compared to what it is today.
