My 2 cents on this. I was ultimately NPQ'd from SNA due to astigmatism as well as my sitting height. My sitting height is 39.78", measured it twice and then averaged. The T45's max sitting height is 38", which meant I was busted for both Jets and E2/C2. I was also busted for the sitting height on the heli pipeline. Which meant i am only eligible for the maritime patrol pipeline. Only thing is, navy requires you to be eligible for 2 different pipelines. I'm only eligible for 1. I think it would be hard to slouch enough to take off 1.78 inches without the flight surgeon seeing. I had the option to go NFO, but I looked up the Air Force anthro measurements for every plane they fly, and I can fly everything but the F16. May be contacting them after my PRK surgery.
It also worth to note that if you are beyond the anthro limits, no waivers will be granted. It is stated in a document someone attached above. If you have questions, dm me
