A giant for a glider
I am very very close to your student's size and weight. I have no
problem fitting in an ASK-21 front or rear, although I prefer the
rear. I've never flown an ASK-13. I fly an LS-3a and have the rudder
pedals one notch back from full forward. I would remove my seatback if
I could but the shoulder belts are attached to the seatback bracket.
Regardless, I still am able to wear a Wedge Softie parachute.
All the best,
Steve

Hi please can someone help.
I am looking to find a suitable aircraft/club for a male ab initio
with no prior experience.
However he is 6'4 and 231lbs (16.5 stone) though medium build. and I
am uncertain that he will be able to fit into the front of a K13 for
instruction.
Does anyone know of anyone of similar height and build that has learnt
to fly a glider and if so was it a K13/21 etc?
Thanks
