In May 2023, we have decided to build a Sling TSi as a Experimental Airplane under the german law. The Sling TSi is a high-performance, four-seat light aircraft featuring a sleek aluminum design and a turbocharged Rotax 915 iS engine. Known for its speed, fuel efficiency, and modern avionics, it’s ideal for both recreational flying and cross-country trips, offering a comfortable and reliable flying experience.

We have ordered the first kits in May 2023 which were delivered to us in October 2023. This is when we have started the build of our plane called “DETSI”!
