I'm not sure if anyone mentioned these budget gliders, but I'm 6'4", slim with long legs, and I fit perfectly inside Jantar Standard 2 and 3, Ok with special cushions in Russia AC-5M, well inside Baby Grob and Blanik L33. DG-100, DG-300 (and DG-808) are also great for me. Standard Cirrus is OK, but needs a slim parachute and little mod to the instrument panel. Open Cirrus is similar.
