“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.”

Team Sling will be camping out from next Friday to Sunday, 6th to 8th March, for a full weekend of flying, demos, good company, and proper aviation vibes. We’re bringing the Sling TSi and Sling High Wing along for demo flights on Friday, 6th March — so if you’re serious about owning your own Sling, this is your chance to experience the difference firsthand. From STOL competitions and spot landings to skydivers, hot air balloons, Harvards, workshops and yes… the Sling pool is coming too, so pack those cozzies😉 — it’s going to be aviation heaven.
