Victor,
If you go 230 lbs I suspect the second person weight will be critical
for W&B. Another 230 lb'er will add up to nearly 50'% of the aircraft
weight. A quick weight and balance calculation will determine the max
weight of a trainee more than the height. I'm 6'4" and 230 lbs now days
and a 170 lb passenger gives me a noticeable rear CG, even with my 24"
stretch and an 0-200 up front.
I hope you can work it out as it may help to improve the finished and
flying number of KR's.
