Make sure that you fall within the average required height range. In order to pilot military aircraft safely and comfortably, all cadets must have a standing height between 5’4” (163 cm) and 6’5” (196 cm), and a sitting height of 34–40 in (86–102 cm). While being outside of this range isn’t necessarily grounds for dismissal, you may be asked to report for additional screenings to prove that your stature won’t be a liability during training or operations
