Wasn't planned but to my surprise I was asked to conduct a familiarisation flight on the BR23 915 IFR. I guess it's real name is even longer. And so are the checklists which make every A320 look pale...
Holy moly.
Bottom line it is nothing but a microlight.
A microlight with the avionics of a business jet. Really.#Bristell #BR23 #EFIS #turbo #generalAviation #pilotsOfMastodon

Second try to try out our new BR23. Failed again. This time the battery died. No, it not just ran empty. It literally died and almost set the plane on fire. Thanks to five screws with different heads it took us several minutes to remove the hot, fuming and steaming battery to secure the plane.
At least, this time I made till fireing up the avionics. Let's see if I'll get airborne in a third try. God damn it.....
