Aeropole is proud to announce that it has now also become a distributor for the Bristell line-up of aircraft, ranging from the various ultralight models to the EASA CS-23 certified B23 models. The Czech manufacturer BRM AERO has become to be known for the high quality of their modern, efficient yet economical two-seaters, born from the legacy and long tradition of aircraft manufacturing in the South-East of the Czech Republic. The B23 models are available with an all-Garmin glass cockpit, including dual G3X/G500TXi, the GFC700 autopilot and a ballistic rescue system (parachute).

As a recent testimony of the success of the B23 model, BRM AERO was recently selected by South Korea’s Defense Acquisition Program Administration (DAPA) to deliver Bristell B23-915 IFR aircraft for an initial pilot training program operated by the Republic of Korea Air Force (ROKAF), the 5th largest airforce in the world. (See the press release.) The development didn’t stop with the success of B23-915 IFR. On December 17, 2025, Bristell B23 equipped with the Rotax 916iS engine (B23-916iS) officially received its EASA CS-23 certification, adding the highest-power option to the B23 line-up and expanding its capabilities for training, touring, and demanding operations such as glider towing. The Bristell B23 is the world’s first EASA CS-23 approved aircraft equipped with the Rotax 916iS engine (TBO 2000 h).

“While we continue to sell ever more Diamond aircraft in the Nordics, thanks to our impeccable track record as their reseller and maintenance partner, the co-operation with BRM AERO is a highly welcome and appreciated addition to our offering to flight schools and private individuals alike in the two-seater segment,” commented Dr Mikko Riepula, the managing director of the Aeropole group, and continued, “I am sure the flight schools and other heavy users are attracted by the overall cost-efficiency, not only thanks to low operating costs but also the efficiency resulting from very fast spare part deliveries both for the engine and airframe components.”

Martin Berka, Business Development Director, and Martin Bříštěla, co-founder of BRM AERO, said, “We are excited to strengthen our deal network in Scandinavia through a strategic partnership with the Finnish aviation group Aeropole — a premium flight academy, aircraft distributor and maintenance workshop with 15 years of history. Aeropole becomes our official dealer, with primary focus in Finland to begin with. Aeropole shares our values: emphasis on quality, safety, and customer care. We are confident this partnership will open new opportunities for pilots in Finland and beyond in the Nordic countries to experience premium Czech aviation.”

Aeropole is proud to announce the certification of a Diamond DA42 FNPT II in Roskilde. This device is not only a cost-effective alternative for using the real aircraft for training but also allows for more effective learning: for example, many failure scenarios cannot be produced in real aircraft. And of course it’s a great time saver for you as the student and client, as there will not be cancellations due to weather!

For example, in our 50-hour SEIR course this FNPT II can be used for up to 35 hours. Indeed, it’s a particularly valuable tool when training for the Instrument Rating, regardless of the course variant.

Our Roskilde simulator (FNPT II) is located in our premises in the same hangar where we keep our actual aircraft.

Aeropole will arrange the next theoretical tuition part of the A-UPRT course on Thursday, October 24th at Technopolis in Vantaa, Finland. You may attend via telepresence (Teams). The practical training will be scheduled individually with every student.

The A-UPRT course is mandatory for all commercial pilots before attending the first type rating course. The course includes five hours of theoretical instruction and three hours of practical flight training with an instructor. Our experienced instructors and the modern fleet will ensure a comfortable, safe, and fun experience!

The course price is 2,975 EUR (incl. VAT), including theoretical and practical training. Please register your attendance no later than Thursday, October 17th by contacting us.

The general VAT rate in Finland will rise from 24 percent to 25.5 percent on September 1, 2024. The prices mentioned on this website for services delivered in Finland include this then-current VAT, unless otherwise specifically stated.

During September 2024, we will keep all previous prices unchanged for new customers/agreements, so that from September 1, 2024, instead of the previous 24%, the same tax-inclusive price will be considered to include 25.5% VAT. After the system changes and pricing calculations that will be made throughout September, end-customer prices can be expected to rise in proportion to the increase in VAT. In other words, September is actually a sale month!

Regarding the invoicing of ongoing training services, the respective training contract applies.
