Default LS-4 For Sale

Is there any glider that fits a tall person where you can do that?


Yes - ASW 28 and probably all the single seat Schleichers since, and
including, the ASW 19. I'm 6 foot 2 inch and see the ends my
tailplane easily and check back there often.

In an SH B series fuselage I can't see much behind the wing tips and
won't fly one because I consider the lack of rear visibility to be
dangerous.

I have the seat back all the way aft but I don't have the rudder
pedals all the way forward in my 28. Pilots taller than me would fit
in it easily and still have the same rear visibility.
