Buying a 1-35 pros and cons?

I have never flown a 1-35, but I am sure you could get a better first
glider. It all depends on your aspirations.

Somebody else gave the advice of a Libelle / Standard Cirrus or Discus. All
really good gliders and competitive in the Club Class as well.

Don't worry about the transition to flaps, its quite simple really. Push
forward to go faster and pull back to slow down and thermal. Pull back a
little further to land.

When you fly a flapped glider for the first time, get a good briefing from
somebody who will no over complicate matters!
