Sorry Dupre, in my experience you are too tall for any airline as cabin crew! Re becoming a pilot - yes there are some cadet schemes within airlines such as BA but there is no easy route to becoming a pilot. The answer is to get your Private Pilots Licence any way you can ie. beg steal or borrow. Most pilots I've ever met have worked very very hard to get where they are .... its got to be a real ambition (or to have very rich parents!)
