I'm an experienced flyer and I'm looking for a sailplane. I've researched just about all I can on these two planes and now I'd like to get some input from those that have actually flown them and better yet those that have flown both. I understand that both of these gliders are not competition level and I'm not looking for that. Just want to hunt thermals.

Now granted the Cularis is the better plane, but for the experienced flyer is the extra cost worth it or will the Radian be just a good (i.e. fun)? Or said another way, if both were sitting on your bench, which would you reach for first to take to the field?

Thanks!!!!
