Hi Tina,

Not that I have heard of! I am assuming that you are asking because you are on the shorter side, as opposed to taller? Generally the only requirement is that you are able to operate the controls of the aircraft you intend to fly, most importantly full scale deflection of the rudder.

Cheers, HH.:ok:

Cathay require at least 1.6m Singapore require at least 1.65m

Thanks for the info - being a bit on the short side (1.6m) and seeing some asian carriers with certain requirements i thought i would get the heads up before switching from choppers to planes

Yes Tina!

What would it be - somewhere up around 45,000 ft?
