As a 16 year old 6ft4 at a Careers Fair a BA Recruitment Team told me I was already too tall to be a pilot. Heartbreaking. Although it saved me having to realise I probably wasn't clever enough or rich enough living in a council house with my mum, but it was my dream then.
But a recent conversation on here said that most airlines don't have this height restriction - I stopped growing at 6ft6 and apparently some airlines would have me. If only i was a competently trained pilot!
