S/n 169 was a one-of-a-kind Libelle with T-tail, made for Eugen Aeberli, one of the three "fathers" of the Libelle (Hänle, Hütter, Aeberli). Changes compared to H201: - rounded fuselage beam - T-tail - 5 cm broader cockpit - contoured wing/fuselage transition - flat canopy, as for H301 "open class" Libelle. Water ballast and winglets added later. The glider was built in 1970 as a kind of prototype for the H 205/206. Flies in Ettenheim in Baden-Württemberg. Source: http://libelle.bugwiper.com/freaks.htm . Thanks for the information. Were its airbrakes improved at all? I'd think that would be a good idea since it probably doesn't shed height in a slip as well without the teardrop boom cross section. -- martin@ | Martin Gregorie gregorie. | Essex, UK org | |
