This is due to the anthropometry requirments of a cockpit. Your sitting height , leg lenght and the thigh&nbsp;lenght is critical in cockpit. you should be able to operate all controls and apply required pressures on the rudder pedals etc. </P> <P>Look up for more on this subject from this resource</P> <P>http://www.aeromedforum.co.nr</P>http://www.jets.dk/cs/forums/thread/5575.aspxSat, 28 Jun 2008 05:11:16 GMTa23efcf1-9e75-4ff9-be18-cd9cb68b9485:5575FutureFighter090http://www.jets.dk/cs/forums/thread/5575.aspxhttp://www.jets.dk/cs/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=21&PostID=5575<P>I recently read that the Navy height requirements for a pilot is 62"-70" &amp; 60"-78" for NFOs. In the article,&nbsp;I also read that you must be at least 32 y/o&nbsp;to be an aviator. Is&nbsp;all this true? I&nbsp;found this extremely disappointing considering my height. I'm a female measuring up to only 60 inches or 5 feet. As possible as it would be for me to become an NFO, I'd rather be the pilot... more specifically, a potential combat pilot. I know I could be an amazing one. </P> <P>James Jabara is my inspiration. Although, him being 5'6" and considered short for a pilot.. seems a bit discouraging for me. Is there any way I could still become a pilot and maybe use blocks in the plane to give me a boost (much like Lt. Jabara did)?</P> <P>I'm considering the Navy as well as the Air Force..leaning more towards Navy.</P> <P>If you can help answer my questions, please do. Thanks!</P>
