The brand new Bristell B23-915 Turbo, HB-KGU of the alpine gliding school Schänis came into action in Langenthal (LSPL). The Swiss representatives were invited to take part in glider towing comparison flights with this aircraft. The local gliding group Oberaargau specified towing configurations in which various tows were performed. The performance data of the participating tow planes were determined.

The B23-915 Turbo is available with a TOST towing winch or hook and can be equipped with a larger oil cooling system on request. Thanks to the spacious and comfortable cabin and the fully equipped Garmin-«glass cockpit» including autopilot, the aircraft is also appreciated as a touring aircraft. A total of 12 aircraft are currently flying, with a further 10 aircraft on order and due for delivery in the coming months. Source: ‚Bristell‚.
