I've never been 300 lb, but I've been 285. ... I've never had any problem getting in or out of gliders, whether it be the back seat of the DG1000 or a PW5 or Libelle. But the maximum pilot weight for the PW-5 is 242 lbs.. At 285 you'd be 43 pounds over allowable load. I guess that you're not concerned about overloading the glider.
