I think the flight schools plan on it taking about 12 months.
6'3" is not too tall for a pilot. The tallest I've known was about 6'7".
Is averaging 25 hours per week realistic? Would that cut it down to more of a 10 week thing? I could definitely fit 5 days of flying 4 hours a day, or 4 days of 6 hours of flying into a week. At least timewise, money may be different. May need to negotiate a deal with family for loans that the tuition reimbusment money from Envoy would go it.
Tobe honest doing it all in 3 months would be ideal, but I've accepted that it'll probably take more.
I meant for the regionals, specifically. I've never seen it written out on an application page that there's a height range, but having to stoop down to get out of your chair and to the loo, or to get off seems like airlines might restrict height that or greatly prefer shorter pilots, as long as they can reach the rudder pedals and overhead panel.
