Description

The Airplane Factory Sling 2 is a South African two-seater light aircraft designed and produced by The Airplane Factory in Johannesburg, South Africa.[2] In 2009 the specially modified second prototype was flown around the world in a westerly circumnavigation which took 40 days.[3] This was the first time any aircraft of this class had achieved a circumnavigation.[4] The design complies with the requirements of four different regulatory aircraft classes.[5][6]

The Sling 2 is supplied as a kit and as a ready-to-fly aircraft and can be operated as a Light-sport Aircraft or homebuilt aircraft.
