Sling 2
Available at Jandakot Airport, Perth. One in fleet.
The Sling 2 was designed with the aim of creating the most practical and desirable light sport aircraft available. The Sling’s flying characteristics make for a perfectly coordinated, highly responsive control setup. This gives it the distinct qualities of a fighter jet aircraft, while not being overly sensitive.
The Sling’s performance matches and outdoes almost every aircraft in its class, while being highly economical and fun to fly. Its aluminium construction makes for ease and consistency of construction, while offering proven strength and a longer lifespan than its composite rivals.
Its excellent instrumentation options make for a unique, state-of-the-art flying experience.
The wide cockpit, excellent all-around view and substantial luggage capacity make the Sling a very comfortable, yet versatile aircraft.
Our Sling is available to The Royal Aero Club of Western Australia members and the general public for private hire, training, scenic flights or charter. Bookings can be made via our friendly Operations Team on (08) 9417 0000.
