  • Hey everyone, George here from Sling Cape’r! This week has been all about waiting for parts for our Sling TSi build in Cape Town. Despite the delays and back-ordered bits, we managed to make some disjointed progress on various aspects of the project.
    Join me as I update you on the status of the vertical stabilizer, left wing wiring, and the long-range fuel tank assembly. Plus, enjoy a little tour around Cape Town with Harry, including a visit to the company gardens, some classic cars, and an unexpected piece of the Berlin Wall!

      Actually we just looked at the cars since we’d just had coffee but I’ll try it sometime. It’s nearby.
