- The Sling Aircraft Sling 2, formerly called The Airplane Factory Sling 2, is a South African two-seater light aircraft designed and produced by Sling Aircraft in Johannesburg, South Africa. In 2009 the specially modified second prototype was flown around the world in a westerly circumnavigation which took 40 days. This was the first time any aircraft of this class had achieved a circumnavigation. The design complies with the requirements of four different regulatory aircraft classes. The design was originally known as the Sling, but was re-designated as the Sling 2 to distinguish it from the later four-seat Sling 4. 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. (en)
