John- The Kestrels use the Airscape system that fits closer against your back, as do the Talons. It's the Stratos that use the Airspeed with the stretched mesh on the wire frame that has the large space. Here's the Kestrel link from Osprey. Literally- take it for a spin by dragging your mouse over the image. For your size, also go to Osprey's fitting page to see how to get your torso length. That's what you need to know, not height. http://www.ospreypacks.com/Packs/KestrelSeriesBackpackingandDayHikingTorsoAdjustable/
