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?



Ok... I'm the same size. Here's a list of potential candidates:

ASW-19/20/Pegase very good
DG-300/800 very good
LS-3/4 very good
LS-6/7/8 length ok, but narrow fuselage
Dicus-2b very good
Nimbus-2 very good
Mistral-C very good
Discus/Ventus b ok
PW-5 ok
Glasfluegel 304 good


My advice: ASW-19 or ASW-20.

Andreas
