After seeing the Bristell at Air Expo I arranged to have a test flight with Farry. So Karen and I travelled to his farm to get a test flight in the aircraft before ordering.

The aircraft was very quick to get off the ground but that’s not surprising considering that it had 140bhp in the front.

Handling was sublime and it was very stable and well harmonised in the turns. Farry knows the aircraft very well and made some manoeuvres that were slightly outside of my comfort zone but only because I don’t know the aircraft very well.

Once we landed I asked Farry if he could take Karen for a quick ride but with only gentle manoeuvres. Karen hopped in and then she was off.

She came back telling me we could use it to go wine shopping in France. I think she was sold on it 🤣
