“During my recent visit to Sling Aircraft in Johannesburg, South Africa, to fly the new High Wing on this month’s cover, I was given complete access to the factory facilities and personnel and learned a lot about their design and production capabilities. I spent a great deal of time with company founder, Mike Blyth, who toured me through all of the facilities and shops that are part of this complete and vertically oriented company.”

Slingers, we’re commemorating an important milestone this year. 18th October marks 17 years since our very first flight and 20 years since our very first aircraft design! As such, we’re celebrating in style with a Sling Birthday Breakfast Fly-In at The Berg Air Lifestyle Centre, El Mirador Airstrip (FALQ), in the Drakensberg on Saturday, 18th October.
