Generally, 64" is the lower limit for lfight programs. Check out this post as it tells you just about all the limits for anthro.

While I'm worried about the other end of the spectrum, I do have this page bookmarked:

It should answer your question.

You will have to do a series of physicals for aviation cruises and for commissioning w/ an SNA designation. Plenty of opportunities to find out early on if you're too short.
Keep in mind that overall height might not matter. It DOES come down to things like sitting height, buttock to knee, and reach. Just because you are the same overall height as someone else means that you will be fully qualified. Flight docs at a Naval Hospital or something similar are your best source. Ask your unit about possibly getting your flight physical so you can find out.
excellent point
You say this in jest but.......there was a pilot on my crew in my first squadron that taped a couple of 3 inch wooden blocks to the bottom of his flight boots. The skipper made him go "sans wood" for his NATOPS checks and VIP flights but he used them the rest of the time.
Wait, I'm confused. He made the mins for anthros, but if he used the blocks it was eaiser to get to the pedals?
Yes
