Hi Jason, sounds like we have traveled a similar path. My first scope was an Orion 4.5" reflector and I just bought an 8" LB. you will find my review in the review files.

A serious plus to the 8 LB is that disassembled it is NOT oversize baggage on any airline. I have not used the Flex dob. If it will fit into the airline baggage requirements then your decision is tougher but if it doesn't... The shipping costs are astronomical on oversize baggage these days.
