Anyone know of an experimental/LSA for sale that would fit a 6ft 5 inch pilot ? A friend of mine is looking and he just missed two. A Rans S-6,S-12, Kolb mk 3 might fit the bill. Or ?

  His budget is around $30-35000 or so for a nice aircraft. He lives close to Ashville, NC so location would be important to go see the prospective aircraft. Rotax 912 is preferable.

         Thanks!

I'm 6'9" and I'm building a Zenith 650 (started as 601).  The 650 has 

more head room.



If you look at barnstormers, I think all of them have the upgrade, which 

adds about 22lbs of aluminum and results in a very strong plane.



I choose the 601 buy walking around Sun-n-Fun and looking for an LSA I 

could fit in.  The Remos and CTSL and SportCruiser were close but not 

there, and were out of my price range anyway.



I took flying lessons in a Tecnam Echo Super.  Very tight, but doable.  

Someone 6'5" might actually be comfortable, than the plane has a 600lb 

useful load.  It's the plane I'd buy if I could afford it.



Sitting height/leg length is more indicative than just height when right 

at the edge.

Joel and Ron,

  Thanks for your input but both the S-7 and 601 are out of the 30-35 thousand budget range.                                    Dick Maddux
