Following their 73 flight hours from Johannesburg to AirVenture in July this year, I caught up with the Sling team in Oshkosh as they landed just minutes before the start of the Wednesday airshow. With EAA AirVenture probably the finest opportunity to launch the new high-wing variation of the highly-regarded low-wing Sling TSi, the South African manufacturer did this in spectacular fashion by flying the development prototype, as well as production serial numbers one and two, all the way from Johannesburg.”
