In the U.S. there are no rules that bar you from being a pilot based on gender. In the U.S. there is a graduated system of levels of accomplishment where you move from private pilot to to commercial pilot. There are also differing levels of qualifications as well such as propeller single engine ,then multi engine,then jet or turbine engine etc. You will have to accumulate a certain number of hours and show proficiency at each level before being qualified to move to next level of aircraft. You will fly some with an instructor and then as you advance in the training you will have to fly solo as well to demonstrate your training has been done. It is very rewarding, but also requires many hours(thousands) before you will be flying anything remotely like the big jumbos comercially. Oviously there is a large cost to all this training as well. I am not sure what level of training is available in the Philippines, but surely there are some schools where you can pursue your start in single engine prop planes since you will need to become well skilled at that before moving up to the next level in your pursuit of flying comercially. Best luck in your flying pursuits!

buttgirl is right. whoever intends to be a pilot or join the navy or other military areas are supposed to have a 20/20 vision and not colorblind. those are the first and foremost requirements. PATTS is a very well known school here in the Philippines.
