at 6' 7" he's have room to swim in the new 304S!
I'm just shy of 5' 11" and 190 pounds, if I put the pedals forward and the
seatback all the way to the rear I am "FULLY" reclined and my head is down
with the "BOTTOM" of the canopy! look at the image (thumbnail) on my index
page

I have never been in any glider with this kind of room to spare!
granted the 304S is not a "club class" glider my anyone's imagination, but
one beautiful and well engineered ship!
I do know of several other very tall pilots flying 304CZ's..they also made a
special smaller instrument panel for these gliders to allow a bit extra leg
room with bent knees..just depends on not only how tall but the body
make-up...some people have not only height and girth to contend with but
also long or short legs or torso's on tall bodies..

I am trying to help a friend find a glider that he can fit into. He is
looking for a club class glider or slighty higher cost. What gliders
would he be able to fit into?
