New maximum sitting height is 92cm. down from 100cm. I'm 96 according to PSA (although I have done numerous tests on my own which make me about 93.5) which now apparently rules me out for Army which is my first and basically only preference. PSA has told me this is affecting a lot of people. It is due to the Kiowa which has been the Army training aircraft for many years now so it baffles me that it's changed now. So I've done all the hard work, testing, interviews, flight screening, been recommended and awaiting an offer but now it looks like it's all over. Why can't this apply to applicants beginning the process at the same time the limit was decreased? A lot of people in the pool now have wasted a year of more of precious time, money and emotion all for now it seems, nothing, I just don't understand. I wasn't contacted either, I had to get this information by ringing them myself.
