I joined the Army in 1994 having suffered childhood asthma. The rules at the time were that you must have been clear of an attack for four years. 1998 passed aircrew selection medical at RAF Cranwell and have been flying since. Never hid the fact and it was never an issue as the medical types understand that some cases can simply be grown out of. As your lungs grow, the problem stays at its original size and is no longer a factor. Go for it and good luck. The amount of people leaving may also help you out. In fact I'm one of them; you can take my place.
