i weigh 82 kg and am 165cm . The cockpit can take a much taller person as i have to use 2 x pillows behind me to touch the rudder pedals .i cant say exactly how tall as its not specified in the manual . In this microlight the pilot does not sit upright but lays back in a very comfortable position with very good visibility .I have taken a very tall passenger for a flip with no issues . Being obese sideways could be a challenging issue as the width of the cockpit and passenger area is more suited for a normal built person . According to the manual the maximum pilot weight is 86Kg , however the cockpit can take a maximum weight of 97.5Kg(Means heavier Pilot needs to take less aboard the cockpit ) and a minimum of 55kg .The passenger section can take maximum 91kg and minimum 0kg . The wing span is 8.5 Metres and height to top of rear fins is 1.75 meters

According to the manual the recommended Pilot weight is 86Kg , however the cockpit can take a maximum weight of 97.5Kg and a minimum of 55Kg. This means a heavier pilot needs to reduce the weight of what he carries aboard into the Cockpit . The passenger section can take a maximum of 91Kg and a minimum of 0 Kg

Hi Who built the plane and any damage history
Does the rear seat take a taller person than the normal shadow and does it have the stronger landing gear

Adrian. Look at this informative website:

The following from the web but with the 582:

Streak Shadow Sales Specification

The CFM

Streak Shadow

The Streak Shadow has been developed from the award winning series produced Shadow Microlight. Categorised as a homebuilt amateur produced aircraft it is designated as a 'Ultralight' in Europe and 'Experimental' in the U.S. The new design of wing coupled with light airframe weight and the powerful engine gives this aircraft OUTSTANDING perform­ance. Staggering acceleration and exhila­rating sustained climb rates are combined with 100 mph hands off cruise. CFM's new wing retains the inherant saftey with its aerodynamics of no 'defined' stall and is very spin resistant. With a total fuel capac­ity of 12 imperial gallons (14.4 U.S. Galls) and endurance of approximately five and a half hours at economic cruise a range of about 400 statute miles is normal.
If a trailer is used for transport the Streak can be readied for flight in less than 10 minutes. Take off and landings can be accomplished from runways, sports grounds and meadows. Fun combined with safety are the key factors when flying a Streak Shadow. .
AFTER ALL, SEEING IS BELIEVING.

The Microlight Manufacture / Builder is Low JA and it is one one the later models build with the strong under carriage . I have taken tall passengers with no problem as it has a foot well in the passenger compartment which lowers the seat . I can't compare to the other Shadows as i am not familiar with them . I am not aware of any damage history as i bought it as a flying machine and have had no incidents while in my hands . I have just really enjoyed flying it as it very agile and handles turbulence like it does not exist .
