The Sling Squawk – June 2026
7 Jun 2026
It is here you will find team Sling Australia, Booth EN6, March 3rd to 5th 2023! Showcasing the latest in aviation, aerospace, defense and space technologies, Avalon is also one of the world’s great airshows, delivering aviation enthusiasts a three-day festival of historic and modern aircraft display flying, from the very early days of flight to today’s fifth-generation military jets. In addition to free entry for kids under 15, merchandise and food stalls, performers from Australia and around the world will come together at Avalon to dazzle, excite and take your breath away.
The adventure begins! A month. A fleet of gorgeous aircraft. One unforgettable adventure across Southern Africa with Josh Flowers, Chelsea Smith, their good friends Chris Lammert and Keelyn Costello, and some of us from Sling HQ. In Part 1 of Aviation101’s four-part series, the journey starts with their arrival in South Africa at Sling HQ in the south of Johannesburg, meeting the aircraft that will become their companions, ZU-TSI and ZU-DFU, and taking the first steps — or rather, first flights — into the unknown.
