Hello All. I have the opportunity to buy a completed Smith Miniplane but I have heard that the aircraft can be quite challenging to take-off and land. Also, I am 6 feet tall and weigh 190 pounds (with clothes) so I am wondering if I will fit in the cockpit. My total tail wheel time is about 30 hours in Citabrias and Decathlons with 1500 total time. To those familiar with the Miniplane can you please share your thoughts with me. Do you feel that the ground handling might be too challenging and also do you think that I will fit into the cockpit. I have always admired the Miniplane (and all old school homebuilts) and I feel that it would be the perfect weekend flyer. Again, please let me know your thoughts and thank you.
