1-35 or 201B

So you have a choice for a first glider. You're flying in northeastern US, i.e. generally light conditions (when it's not snowing). These 2 planes have roughly similar performance on paper and prices, although they probably handle quite differently and I would guess the 1-35 penetrates better. Maybe the Libelle climbs better. Both are in excellent condition. The Standard Libelle is the version (B) with larger air brakes and foam core, not balsa. Which would you pick and why? Thanks. Wad. Libelle. Choice strictly based on looks. :-) Shawn
