Im afraid of heights

I can't get on a ladder taller than myself but am a pilot as my job. You might want to try it, it might not affect you as far as being afraid of heights is concerned.

Sad :(

Same! I was told that I could not be a pilot because I wear glasses, so I gave up. In hindsight, it was probably OK. I've known several pilots and the first few years can be really hard to have a family or even a relationship.

Ironically, 3 of the pilots I know are afraid of heights.
