Bristell Unveils New High-Wing Design

Expects To First Show The Airplane To The Public At Aero Friedrichshafen 2020

Bristell has a new model that it plans to show to the public for the first time at Aero Friedrichshafen 2020. The B8 is a high-wing, all-metal aircraft, and the order book is open.

According to the company, the B8 is a strutless high-wing airplane with a steerable nose wheel and control yokes in the cockpit. The basic model will be powered by a 100 hp Rotax 912ULS, with planned options for Rotas IS, 914 and 915iS engines.

The 49-inch-wide cockpit will have composite doors, and a separate door for the luggage compartment.

Bristell plans a first public showing of the B8 at Aero Friedrichshafen 2020, and says it will be available for test and demonstration flights shortly after that show.

And if you want to book a production slot, you can do that right now. Bristell says the airplane is two months into production, and delivery positions are available. The price will be similar to the current Bristell models.

The company says the B8 will be certified in the Czech Republic as an ultralight with a MTOW under 1,300 pounds (600 kg).
