I believe he lost the space for an oxygen bottle (at least, the factory installation space) when he did that mod. Also, many easy ways to be able to lower the canopy while seated. Most notable being something like a leather cord that hangs down from the canopy into easy grasp range. You can find several other images, maybe of that same Libelle, with Google. You may also find pictures of a twin wheeled Libelle!

Link to a few shots of the one JJ modified.

Hi Steve,
I'm not too worried about losing the O2 setup, but the attachment points for it could be useful. Certainly a lanyard would be a simple solution. I don't see that the canopy needs to swing open as far as 90 degrees. I didn't have much success tracking down any more images of that particular mod though.
The JJ mod looks quite radical.
