announced in 2010. Czech UL type certification was given on 14 December 2011, German type
certification for the Bristell UL followed on 17 September 2012. The ultra-light aeroplane Bristell UL
and its LSA modification was designed to comply with both European microlight rules and
also the US light-sport aircraft regulations, by using different versions for each regulatory environment. The aircraft is
designed for use in flight training at flight schools, glider towing and recreational flying.
Thanks to the combined comfort of good ergonomic design in the largest cockpit in its category, this aeroplane
is ideal for longer cross-country flights. A tailwheel version of the
Bristell is known as TDO, and the Bristell LSA RG version has a retractable undercarriage. BRM Aero produced
already over 500 Bristell aircraft.
