I find that really a shame, because I have 128 hours in a 1-35 and it's
really a nice sailplane, in my opinion. Then again, I like tha flaps
better than spoilers. A 1-35 is really pretty rugged, and makes a fine
first sailplane, if one can get past the fear of looking down over the
nose at full flap.
