Vne for the Std Libelle is 118kts.

Vne for Std Cirrus is about the same.

135kts is probably quite exciting in either

I thought I'd seen the H.201B Vne given as 123 kts. In fact the BGA Data
Sheets quote 124kts but the B series Operators Manual, as issued by
Glasfaser says 135 kts, 250 km/h

I'm with you: 135kts sounds rather too exciting.
