You will find that its the reverse in fact! The Grob 109B has a very limited gliding capability but an exceptional touring ability. Gliding wise you need an extremey good UK day. You will not be able to penetrate into wind!
Cruise speed is a around 90Knots with an endurance in the region of 6 hours.
There is a lot of room for baggage, although at first glance you wouldnt think it.
There are weight issues. See the Flight manual for details.
6ft 5 may be a problem Try one on first.
