Good sailplanes for tall pilots?
UPDATE:
I went out to the soaring club this weekend and tried on a few gliders. 1. The LS-1f is totally out. We tried every possible contortion and adjustment. If I slide down low enough to close the canopy, my knees are buried in the back of the instrument panel, lifting it out of position. I'm not keen on the possibility of accidentally disconnecting pitot-static lines, either.
