Some airlines publish height maximums, especially for cadet programmes, however, they tend to be slightly more flexible with direct-entries. Some say height to a maximum that still ensures full unimpeded movement of flight controls on all fleets.
Dont give up, I'm 6'6", and I fly for a European flag-carrier which actually advertises a height maximum of less than that

GOOD LUCK!!

ALT, I know the difficulties of fitting in a
Cockpit. Myself I'm 1.98m (thats about 6'7"). My first job was flying a C550 as F/O.Immagine! Luckely I flew the B737 for the last couple of years.I know there is a lot of height restrictions around for airline people, however I belive there is always a way around it.
