Interesting assortment of Hornets in the vid, that's for sure. I wasn't all-too-wowed by the video, but thank you for sharing it nevertheless!

Wait. I thought the maximum was 6'2'' (or 190 cm).

This is where I looked. It shouldn't be too different across the board, should it? Mind you many requirements can be waived or are more stringent depending on the circumstances.

If you want to fly AWACS or Globemasters, but my understanding is fighter pilots tend to be short.  This is due to the size of fighter aircraft and the fact that for the type of high G maneuvers expected of dog fighting being short is very beneficial.

[Pred the Penguin]

Ah, I see. Well, I'm definitely on the short end, but there are some other problems that would probably disqualify me.
