Well, Van is pretty tall.  Probably not 220 lbs though.

I had a guy who is 6'-2" and 220 lbs ask me "would he fit in an RV-3 slider cockpit".  I have no idea. Do any of you know of someone who is close to this size that flies okay in this airplane.  

    

   

    

Thanks, Rick Fogerson

A friend of mine used to have a -3 before he built a HR2, and he's 6'-2" or better, around 220.

Hi don't know if it's anything to go by, I'm about  5' 8 and 200lbs and just about fit in the rear seat of an RV4, front is no  problem. It's no so much weight, but the width of your shoulders.

  

 do not archive
