Overview
The B23, made for MOSAIC.
The Bristell B23 Mosaic takes the proven B23 airframe, the widest cabin in its class, and builds it to the United States' new MOSAIC certification rule. At its heart is the more capable Rotax 916 iS: 161 HP and a 146 KTAS cruise, for a genuinely more capable aircraft in the expanded MOSAIC category.
About
More capable, by design.
The B23 Mosaic is built to the United States' new MOSAIC certification rule, which opens up a more capable class of aircraft to Sport Pilots. At its heart is the turbocharged Rotax 916 iS, with 161 HP and a 146 KTAS cruise, so there is real performance in reserve for climb, cruise and crossing higher terrain.
It keeps everything that makes the B23 a pleasure to fly, the widest cabin in its class, balanced handling and a full-glass panel, and adds the reach of a stronger engine. For a Sport Pilot stepping up, or anyone who wants the proven B23 airframe with more capability, the Mosaic is an easy aircraft to fly and to live with.
