I'm considering purchasing a Phoebus C and would like any opinions on the size of the cockpit for a 6'1" 180# pilot. Also, any of you take her over the top...
180lbs is OK, but 6' 1"is VERY marginal. I've never done aerobatics but I have the feel that it would be OK. Phoebus is stressed for 13G and seems to be very...
I've heard different opinions about how tall you can be and still fit in the Phoebus. I'm only 5'9" but I could move my rudder pedals forward about 5" from...
The A model has the same cockpit as the B and C minus the landing gear lever. I also agree that 6'1" is probably possible but at about the limit. If you fly...
This is just my 2c worth - one of my partners is 6'1/2" and 190#, and is comfortable in the Phoebus C. It is tight as everyone has said, but ia actually a...

Hi. I am new to this group. I am looking to buy a glider, and having never done that before, need to make sure that I get the right one. I have been looking at...
Ockie, The wings are very heavy (175lbs+ each), so one man rigging is probably not possible, and the l'hotelier connections can be tough to attach. I think the...
My Phoebus C is the first glider I have owned and I moved into that straight from two seaters (PW6 and Twin Astir). Transition is no real problem but needs a...
