Standard Libelle (202, 203, 204)

Glasflügel recognized the sign of the times and made some effort to improve the performance and flight characteristics of the production aircraft.

In this sense, the prototypes 202, 203 and 204 can be seen as a forerunner for the later aircraft. In 1970 the 202, a Standard Libelle with a modified fuselage and a T-tail was built under the influence of Eugen Aeberli. The fuselage front part with the rounded canopy still comes from the Standard Libelle, while the fuselage tube behind the wing does not have the teardrop shape with point upwards, but an oval cross-section. The first flight took place on the 6th of November 1970.

This Standard Libelle first had the German registration D-0649 and was subsequently registered in Switzerland as HB-1062 and is now registered again in Germany.

In 1972, the Standard Libelle 203 followed, of which two were built. The two-time German champion Ernst-Gernot Peter was able to achieve a number of excellent competition results with the V1, registration D-0603. The V2 with the registration D-3017 was built in 1973 for the multiple Italian champion Pronzati, but always bore German registration.
