That doesn’t matter at all. I was worried about this when I was about 10 years old (having wanted to be a pilot since the age of 5). I started writing letters to airline asking about being a pilot etc (I have a folder of replies from the likes of BA, Virgin Atlantic, Air 2000, Heavylift, Channel Express, Airtours etc) and they have all said that eyesight problem were acceptable, aslong as they were ‘corrected’. ie. colour blindness, cannot be corrected, so that isn’t acceptable. However, if when wearing glasses you can see just as well as anyone else, then there is no problem.
Yeah i heard something about that, i’m gonna do my PPL but thats prob as far as im gonna take it, as i would rather fly in the military for the Fleet air arm or RAF 😀 way more fun 😎 But can’t so life goes on 🙁 , no offence to any civvy pilots or pilots to be, i suppose it personal preference and you do earn more money in civvy street 😉
