Same physical spec fits in Std Cirrus OK...
Some others are as big. I think you would have no problem in the LAK if I look at the local owner. Bruce wrote: Buy the LAK-12 if it's performance you're after. My biggest concern with any glider is two-fold: 1) Will I fit in? I'm 6'3 and fairly wide. 2) Will it handle my weight? I'm 250 pounds. Granted, I'm slowly dropping my weight, aiming for 220 pounds. Still, that's the top end of a lot of ships. I fit nicely in a Blanik L-33 (well, a bit tight on shoulders, and 1/2 inch of headroom before I bang the canopy); and no parachute. But for my first bird (if I can ever afford one), I'd like to have a bit better legs for cross-country. |
