The story
The four-seat big sibling of the Sling 2, from The Airplane Factory in South Africa. Same low-wing, all-metal formula, with gull-wing canopy doors and room for the family and their bags. The later TSi version moved up to the 141 hp turbocharged, fuel-injected Rotax 915 iS and a cleaner, flush-riveted airframe.
The Sling 4 TSi's turbocharged Rotax 915 can run on ordinary unleaded car fuel as well as avgas.
