Fantastic overview, Rich! Excellent information for all Bristell owners. Y'all are -- by far -- the best service/maintenance folks I've experienced in the GA world. Your quick response to questions, professional and honest approach, ability to schedule timely service or maintenance, and overall 'can do' attitude are prime reasons I'm a highly satisfied Bristell owner. A superb aircraft maintained by dedicated professionals -- a winning combination!
What a great video! Even after a year of ownership I learned some new things on the walk-around. I wish I had this a year ago. I really hope you will continue to post these types of videos. This also says a lot about Bristell and their customer service. As a bristell owner I can honestly say I have never felt alone. I know that there is always someone ready to help me and I can get a reply to any question within a day (or even an hour sometimes). You guys Rock!
Rich, where are you located? Is the angle of attack data displayed on the Garmin screen? And, I can't help but get nervous whenever someone turns the prop and their body parts are 'at risk' if the engine starts?!! :-0
It's a requirement to de-cowl the airplane and undertake this level of detailed pre-flight engine inspection? I'd be terrified of scratching it ! There must be a better (more professional) term than "burp". Seems like this procedure serves to >>decompress
No, you do not need to de-cowl with each preflight. You need to check your oil and coolant with each preflight. You can see the coolant by looking through the top right opening of the cowling with a flashlight. As with the previous reply, if you prefer you can fart the engine as opposed to burp. Again, you don't have to de-cowl to fart the engine, or check the oil and coolant levels.
Thanks Rich. As a new Bristell owner, I enjoy something like this. You guys have a great crew there.

I’m worth 33 million and I wouldn’t waste my money on such a toy. Way too expensive for a light sport. All these planes should be 200k or less.
Lose the music. It's extremely annoying!
