I weigh 255 pounds... am I disqualified from this sport?
Most German built gliders such as the Grob 103 have a per seat limitation of
242#. But again they may only have a useful load of about 400# for both seats combined. The US built SGS 2-32 should be your glider of choice. Many single seat gliders have Max pilot weight limits around 200-210# such as the SGS 1-36 or 1-34. Other single seat glass birds, if you can fit you can fly. B "Austin Healy" wrote in message ... I guess the title says it all..... can't even do an "intro" flight because of COG constraints?
