I've wanted to become a fighter pilot for a very long time, and I just realized I might be too short. . . I'm 5'2" barely, and if it makes any difference I'm a girl. Thank you!
My dad was an AF pilot years ago. I remember him telling stories of his squadron mates. The ones that were too tall would do jumping jacks in hopes of compressing their spines so when they went to weigh in (or "height in") they would be at an acceptable height. Conversely, I remember him telling me about the ones that were too short would hang upside down from a bar in hopes of "stretching" their spines.

Of course I am a person who Wrestled 103 when I was in the 8th grade....and have not seen that weight since.
Honestly, are they designing that thing to open it up to more women? What does that do for the giants that I have seen in the past then?
It's not purely about height. The blunt answer is that at 5'2", odds are you a bit smart by one of the anthro measurements for pilot.
this old grunt just thought all they “measured” for Pilots was…..well never mind, we won’t go there.
