Hi,my height is almost 5'' 3...pls tell me that can i be a pilot with this height? and how can i grow tall .

Answer 1

Unless you are only 12 years old or so..... I guess your height is going to be what it is!!!

as for the requirements for being a pilot??? you would have to check with the regulations....

But you could allways get your licence and go on your own !!! Good Luck!

Answer 2

I've seen  5' 3" airline pilots.

Answer 3

You will be just fine. Believe me, the taller you are, the more difficulty you'll have.

Answer 5

I used to be an F/A-18 engine mechanic, and sometimes I'd have to deal with the ejection seats, so I tried out the cockpit one day. Even with the pedals all the way forward, it was a tight fit for my 6'2" frame. So I'd think that, as long as you can pass the FAA physical, your height won't be a liability at all.
