  1. Asthma after your 13th birthday is disqualifying for entry into the armed forces. This includes exercise-induced bronchospasms, reactive airway disease and asthmatic bronchitis. The source below is the medical standard.


  2. You probably won't pass the physical if your allergies/asthma is documented.  Flying is a question nobody can answer without knowing if you'll be able to pass the physical (and ASVAB with lines scores indicating you'll succeed in aviation).  And with the info you already gave, it's highly unlikely.

    I can't tell you what to do or say to an AF recruiter.  There's no guarantees to begin with you can fly let alone pass the physical.

    If you've ever flown with a cold, you should realize the seriousness of flying with problem 02 exchanges.  Plus the d**n earaches lol.  Plus there's no limit to when you fly so "seasonal" becomes irrelevant.

    Good luck though.
