After looking at a couple of Sports Cruisers I decided that they were in a bit long in the tooth and heavy. I had heard of the Bristell, it got very good reviews so I decided to go to see one. I travelled to Air Expo where I met with Farry who is one of the owners of Bristelluk who import the aircraft as an advanced build kit.

Farry showed me his aircraft, G-NGII which is an NG5 with a supercharged 912ULS engine producing 140BHP.  It was stunning and was something I would be proud to own. He produced an order list and told me the options available to pimp it up. There was a base kit with options for wing lockers, leather seats, BRS parachute, toe brakes and loads of other options. He recommended the ones I should add and invited me for a test flight at some point in the future.
