Design the exterior of your
Sling Aircraft to your liking
Effortlessly elegant, superbly finished with a forensic eye. You can turn your Sling into your personalised dream aircraft using our numerous standard or complex paint scheme and vinyl design options and in addition Sling Aircraft uses LEDs for all exterior lighting. Not only do these use less energy and generate less heat, but they are also exceptionally bright and allow for sharply defined beams.

experience
The latest addition to the iconic range of Sling Aircraft combines the great handling characteristics that you have come to expect from Sling, together with the inherent stability of the classic high-wing design. The extra-large cabin features wide, easy access doors, superb four-seat ergonomics and best-in-class comfort and quality. The electric seats as well as the pedals can be adjusted with ease and a luggage extension accommodates longer cargo items such as ski’s, golf clubs and surfing equipment. Comfort on the inside is complemented by a robust, occupant safety-first design on the outside.
A truly first-class travel experience, the Sling High Wing’s elegantly crafted interior showcases executive four-seat comfort. Using only genuine leather and lavish carpeting, the Sling High Wing stands out with an elegance that adds a touch of class to aircraft interiors. Available in four colour palettes: Cast Iron, Red Velvet, Indigo Sky and Cloud Burst with stitching, piping and panelling in complementary colours.
Your Sling High Wing is powered by a
160 hp turbocharged fuel-injected Rotax 916 iS
Based on the proven concept of the Rotax 912 and 915 engine series, the Rotax 916 iS engine offers increased power, the best power-to-weight ratio in its class, full take-off power up to 15,000 feet (4,572 m) and a service ceiling of 18,000 feet (5,486 m).
Your Sling High Wing is fitted with an MT Hydraulic Constant Speed Propeller. This propeller automatically adjusts its blade pitch angle, allowing it to maintain a constant RPM. This operation perfectly suits modern engines, particularly the turbocharged fuel-injected variety.
Excellent instrumentation options make for a unique and state-of-the-art flying experience, at a fraction of the cost of our certified competitors.
