FOR SALE: 2025 Bristell NG5 – G-LIMR – Brand new August 2025. Just 67.7 TACH Hours

WE ARE ONLY SELLING OUR BRISTELL BECAUSE WE HAVE A SECOND BRISTELL ARRIVING IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS, OTHERWISE THERE WOULD BE NO WAY!

ANY INSPECTION WELCOME -SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY.

In my opinion, G-LIMR is the best looking and specified Bristell NG5 in the UK. She attracts attention wherever we go. I should be on commission! :-)

The blurb: “NG5 is a premium, ready-to-go aircraft for the discerning owner—ideal for cross-country flying, touring, or simply enjoying the freedom of a top-quality piston single”.

Bristell NG5 personal view:
Beautiful aircraft. Modern design. Easy to Fly (Stick not yoke). Emergency Parachute.

All metal design – not composite. Hopefully never needed, but dings and dents can be more easily repaired.

Group A – not a microlight, so file a Flight plan, a GAR and you’re off to France/Europe. None of the faff and restrictions surrounding Microlight operation. Trust me, it’s liberating. You Fancy Le-Touquet this afternoon? Just go! Try that in a microlight! Been there, tried that. Of course, its possible, but for me the contrast in simplicity is huge.

We did one trip to France last Autumn and have more planned for this flying season (in the new one obvs). Home – Calais – Chartres – Troyes – Le Touquet – Home. Just fantastic. Two of us, luggage in the back, luggage in the two 20kg each wing lockers. Easy.

We have literally just done a 100% bang on (and expensive) Carb Balance and Prop Balance. She’s flying beautifully now. Neither item was far out, but combined there’s a noticeable difference in smooth flight.

The avionics are next level. Overkill in some respects, but I wanted a top-notch build. Highlights below, but they cost £25k alone.

The build cost total that I can prove is over £175k. A no-expense spared approach. Every expense spent more like! If we did this again there’s no way we would spend this much on it, but if you buy this plane, you’re the one that will benefit from it.

The most important thing: This aircraft is bugs/issues free, ready to go.

Sadly, people have and will, kill themselves by inadvertently entering IMC conditions. If you’re not experienced in IMC they say you have 20-30 seconds before you start to lose control of the aircraft. This is repeat… repeat, sadly. G-LIMR – If you enter IMC, you simply push the ‘LEVEL’ button on the Autopilot. Press Heading mode. Turn the heading bug 180 degrees and she’ll fly you back out in perfect safety. We practice this manoeuvre all the time along with engine off practice into our home base.

Some highlights:
• Reg: G-LIMR - Build completed and permit: August 2025
• Serviced every 25 hrs.
• Emergency ballistic parachute.
• Exceptionally equipped avionics: ALL DYNON.
• Stunning panel!
• Dual SkyView HDX1100 touchscreens both with backup batteries.
• Dynon Garmin G5 with backup battery.
• Dynon Autopilot.
• Dynon Radio, Transponder, AP Panel, Intercom – No compatibility issues.
• Group-A specification—ideal for cross-Channel touring. Just file your flight plan and GAR form—no microlight limitations.
• Panel cooling iPad mount for 11” iPad. (Critical component).
• Hardwired Pilot Aware (for traffic) including fuselage mounted dual antennas.
• Ray Allen G407 Stick Grip (PTT, 2x AUX and 4x TRIM) – The auto-pilot can be engaged/disengaged directly from the stick. I know of only one other NG5 with this option. Time and again these stick buttons prove invaluable. You need to disconnect the AP? No reaching for a screen or AP panel, just push a button on the stick! It’s the small things that matter sometimes.
• Full dual controls with adjustable pedals.
• Real two-seat capability: full fuel, full luggage, pilot and passenger—no problem. Luggage space includes a compartment behind the seats and two wing lockers (20 kg each)
• Modern, Dry hangered from new. Not a ‘tent’ type.

PRICE: £155k ONO. Cheaper than many new Microlights these days. Why would you?
