The others have made good points, but also consider...
There is something really special about flying the Libelle. It really feels great to fly.
And you can't beat the ventilation with the canopy partly open in flight.
The feel does change a bit when full of water ballast, more like other gliders.
Airbrakes and elevator are auto hook up. Ailerons are manual, but nice hardware - not L'Hotelliers.
Below, my second favourite flight of 2013 (first was the declared 1000km):
A 500km FAI triangle in H201B.
