ToTall Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 I am 6' 3" tall and wondering if the schweizer 300 would be ideal for my training,its the only craft for training.XCell I am 6.7 and love flying the 300 and now working as a CFI in the 300. I started in a R22 but not for me. Quote
apiaguy Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 wow,I'm 6'1" and I must have a long upper body because my head/headset are inconstant contact with the canopy. I pretty much have to slightly tip my head forward all the time. That said... you'll be fine in there but the overhead tinted canopy starts curving in a little too soon for me. Quote
Goldy Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 I'm 6'5", the only thing I dont like about the 300 is the doorframe is right at my eye level, so clearing turns takes a lil more effort and I dont like having the blindspot. I guess you get used to it, I never did enough time in one...so it bugged me. Quote
Galadrium Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 You'll have no problem with the 300, but if you want even more room try an Enstrom. Quote
xcell Posted April 8, 2008 Author Posted April 8, 2008 happy to hear from all you tall guys,minds at ease now,thanks Quote
