Bristell B23

for Microsoft Flight Simulator

B23 is the next-generation low-wing airplane released recently by BRISTELL. BRISTELL is a Czech aircraft manufacturer which has produced more than 670 LSA aircraft worldwide.

The B23 has been designed to satisfy the European CS23 / U.S. FAR23 certification basis. While the airplane looks similar to the classic BRISTELL LSA, many new design changes are applied. The fuselage is longer, and the tail with an aluminum rudder is larger. The flaps and stabilizer are bigger and more efficient. The composite main landing gear legs have been redesigned completely to carry much heavier loads than previous Bristell models, and the aircraft’s handling characteristics are much improved. In addition, the twin elevator trim tab greatly optimizes forces on the control stick.

The basic equipment includes a steerable nose wheel and a BRS ballistic parachute rescue system. The standard-equipped aircraft also meets the night-VFR requirements and can be upgraded to meet IFR requirements. It has a three-blade constant-speed propeller and the most spacious cockpit in its class.

The airplane's maximum take-off weight of 750 kg and an empty weight of 450 kg offer you 300 kg of useful load. With a 120-liter fuel tank capacity, the BRISTELL B23 is a very good cruiser. The airframe is designed for long life and has a robust structure, which makes it particularly well-suited for flight training.
