What a great plane. I had my first Sling TSi flight in N135WT in September of 2020 and second Sling TSi flight in September 2023. My third flight will be in my Sling TSi, N141D, that is in the final stages of the build. I went out to Torrance to take the Sling TSi off my list…I walked away knowing I would buy one! Good luck on your journey.
The Sling community is great. I was the first builder in the USA of the Sling 4 (predecessor of the TSi), which I started back in 2014, and I love flying her. In case you don't know there are two Sling-related Facebook groups, Sling Airplane Enthusiasts and Sling Builders (I'm an Admin of that one).

Thanks for the info, Craig. Rick
THOSE ENGINES..
any updates from the 135WT incident last month? how are they doing? Tks
Have been looking, but no updates yet. Rick
Wow, what happened?
135WT crashed with a student and CFI aboard near Torrence @@alphaadhito
Why was N135WT on its third engine with only 3000 hours?
The 915is has a tbo of 1200 hours. Rick
@@goldenoldie3524 ahh ok, so not 3 new engines, it's on its 3rd rebuild. Got it, thanks for clarifying!
They were new
@@goldenoldie3524 oh wow, why did they replace the entire engines vs rebuilding?
I think they get a deal from rotax.
