do you have to be a certain weight to pass the medical certification for the pilot program?

For eg for a 5'7 female - is there a maximum weight to pass?

    Hi Elizabeth.


    You would have to be able to get an Initial Class 1 medical which includes many factors. There is some guidance from the CAA on this link. Medical requirements for certification | Civil Aviation Authority. I hope this will help you understand the requirements to pass the medical. I am unaware of any specific weights but this would be evaluated alongside your general health.


    Good luck if you decide to apply!


    Best wishes
