The question is whether the beautiful cockpit is big enough to fit 186cm and 100kg.

Somehow I doubt it...

There is no problem with this. On the 9.01.05 a well known, to those who
were on last Worlds in Leszno, Jacek Dankowski who is 194 cm tall and
weights more than 100 kg has tested the cockpit capacity. He said that
he feels comfortable in it.
Another myth is that the side stick is uncomfortable. The truth is that
only for those who havent been flying Diana

If one is left-handed, can the ship be ordered with the stick installed on
the left side?

You don't want it over there, unless you also also get the spoilers on
the right side (speaking as a left-handed pilot that flew a couple of
training flights using his left hand, until the instructor said "now,
open the spoilers...").

Practically speaking, there is no advantage to a left-hander to use his
left hand on the stick. The motions are relatively large and easily
learned by a left-hander, compared to fine motions like handwriting.
Might as well, since every other single seat glider requires the right
hand. If you REALLY want to fly left handed, look at a side-by-side two
seater, some of which require a left hand on the stick and a right hand
on the spoilers.

I learned to fly left handed (after many years of flying right handed
gliders) when I took power training. The fine motions Eric refers to
are performed by the fingers, which are not used when holding a stick
or yoke.

BTW: I did get my SEL rating.

That is one elegant glider.... I hope it flies as well as it looks.
