USMCmech said:Pilots exposure to solar radiation is higher than normal, but it's still far from a problem.
Wrong, skin cancer from ultraviolet radiation is going to be a big problem for people who fly a lot in unpressurized aircraft with Plexiglas windows, whether the aviation operation is Title 14 CFR part 91, 105, 135 or whatever.If in fact you're asking about becoming a licensed pilot in the realm of "general aviation" rather than commercial flying, be assured that at the low altitudes used by private pilots in light aircraft the radiation risks are negligible.
