Exciting news from our French Sling community! Our dedicated distributor, Sylvain Henneton of Jetlag Group, has been making waves with the Sling TSi, gaining well-deserved recognition across France. Recently, the Aeroclub Montalbanais published a 9-page article featuring a Sling TSi built at Sylvain’s premises, highlighting the aircraft’s performance and appeal.
Adding to the momentum, the latest edition of Info Pilote magazine, a major French aeronautical magazine and the official publication of the French Light Aviation Federation, has given the Sling TSi a prestigious cover feature as well as a 10-page article! This article dives into the journey of the first Sling TSi to take flight in France, a build made possible in Sylvain’s workshop alongside the owner and builder of the first Sling High Wing (SN#015) in the country.
With anticipation building for homologation in France, this coverage is a testament to the growing enthusiasm for Sling aircraft in the region. While both articles are in French, we encourage our France-based Slingers to check them out. And if you’re dreaming of owning a Sling yourself, don’t hesitate to reach out to our trusted French distributor to make it happen!
