“A quick Google search of “Linda Sollars” brings up a plethora of articles detailing the remarkable journey of this petite dynamo. Notably, she flew from Johannesburg to Oshkosh in N915HW, the inaugural Sling High Wing, which she built from the kit at Sling Aircraft in Tedderfield Airpark, South Africa.
For most individuals, such an endeavour would mark a pinnacle achievement, a feat many dream of, but few realise. Yet, for Linda, it was merely another feather in her very large cap.”

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.
