CASA and Bristell

[facthunter]

 Unilaterally declaring yourself the "NEW GA" didn't help. Nev

Well, I am a new Bristell owner, and I am actually not concerned at all.  You stall pretty much most LSAs at 500ft on the final turn, and well, the results won't be pretty.

 

to be fair, go back and look at the fatals in the link above, and see how many of them have nothing to do with the aircraft.

 

I tend to agree that these might not be the best aircraft to be training in.  The are like a sports car in the sky, and maybe too sporty for a pilot with little to no skills at all.

 

I don't intend to stall mine anytime soon.  I have been trained on stalls and spins recovery, and I think everyone should.  More importantly everyone should be trained how NOT to stall and spin.  Prevention is better than cure.

I see another yellow one from the auction got delivered to Marian up here either yesterday or today. YTM.

Yeah, Soar aircraft will be everywhere.  I would hate to buy one in Bog Orange! LOL!   A Repaint ain't cheap.  Mine is not a Soar bird - BTW.
