“Homegrown Sling Aircraft is acknowledged as a South African success story for aircraft design and development capability. Co-founders Mike Blyth and James Pitman have based their development of the range on the heart of the aircraft, the Rotax engine, as well as the increasing demand in international markets, particularly the US.
In the Smoke On…Go! Talk Show series brought to you by Pratt & Whitney Canada, Sally Fleck sat down with James for a fascinating insight into how this aircraft manufacturer has captured global attention through development by flying the aeroplanes and understanding their capabilities.”
