The Airplane Factory has upgraded the Sling 4 with a powerful new engine that has created a whole new aircraft as John Absolon of Australian Flying found during a visit to the Gold Coast. It looks like a garden-variety Sling 4 at a distance, but up close the 141 hp Rotax makes the Sling TSi a very different machine.
