Will having a family history of diabetes disqualify a person pursuing a career as a pilot in the major commercial airline industry?

If you don't have diabetes then you should have no problem. Like the Army recruits say "Don't volunteer!" So, unless they ask you about family history don't give the information. If they were to nix you because of your family history then it's discrimination. Diabetes does have a pattern in families, but it's not 100% and not scientifically proven. Go for it! Good luck Marcy
