BRISTELL Classic with ROTAX 916iS engine

BRISTELL CLASSIC WITH ROTAX 916iS ENGINE: A NEW CHAPTER OF PERFORMANCE FOR EUROPEAN SKIES

Exciting news for aviation enthusiasts across Europe! Our beloved BRISTELL Classic model equipped with the new ROTAX 916iS engine has just received German ultralight certification. This milestone opens doors not only for German pilots but also paves the way for pilots in Italy, Poland, Sweden, Finland, Austria, Romania, and beyond to experience freedom of flight with unprecedented power and safety.

What makes this BRISTELL so exceptional?

Imagine 160 horsepower of pure performance that reliably carries you up to 23,000 feet. Thanks to the turbocharged ROTAX 916iS engine, you'll enjoy full power even at high altitudes - a feature particularly valuable for pilots flying in Alpine regions.

We recently put this aircraft through its paces in Kunovice and Austria. The results? Simply stunning. BRISTELL Classic effortlessly handled towing even heavy gliders like the TwinShark weighing 850 kg (1,874 lbs), and did so from a mere 600-meter grass runway. With a climb rate of 1500 ft/min at MTOW, it masters challenging terrains like narrow Alpine valleys with confidence.

"This aircraft represents the pinnacle of our engineering expertise and commitment to quality" says Martin Bristela, founder and CEO of Bristell. "We believe pilots across Europe will appreciate its performance, comfort, and operational efficiency."

What you get with the new BRISTELL Classic:

  • Spacious cabin for maximum comfort during long flights
  • Impressive cruising speed of 272 km/h (147 knots)
  • Outstanding glider towing capabilities including winch installation option
  • Durable all-metal construction for longevity
  • Competitive pricing from 189,000 EUR
