The cirrus ,nimbus 2,ventus,and the mosquito,mininimbus, LS3 will fit even
me when
when I was 125kgs so you are smaller than me so you should not have a
problem.
With your extra height just take out the seatback and use cushions to set
yourself up
properly and if you need more room for your length have a parachute harness
made
and have the chute in a purpose made pack that fits behind your head
attached to the
spar .That was the rig used by someone 6'4"

I am 6'3" 205 lbs. and currently shopping for a sailplane. I fit OK in
the SGS-1-26, 2-33, Puchacz and can squeeze into a Grob 102 with about
1/2" of clearance to the canopy.
What about Libelle, ASW-15b, DG100, Standard Cirrus, Jantus B ? You
know, all of those "other" sailplanes.
Any and all responses appreciated.
Thanks,
Clark
