Pilot weight and gliding
Hello,
I'm just now learning about Gliding and will start instruction soon. Question: I'm 6ft tall and weigh 232 lbs. Have I weighed myself out of many sailplane options? I DO plan on losing some more weight, but just in case I don't, would appreciate some knowledge on this  Theinstructor said I'm ok for the trainer I'll be flying in. Thanks in advance john
