How Small Planes are Built - SLING Aircraft Factory Tour

This video is about Bambi.
It would have been nice to see the aircraft...lol

I really enjoyed that!

Very interesting. I like the idea of height adjustment on the seat. During all of my flight training I always struggled with not being able to see much over the instrument panel (I'm 5'6").

Hi Bambi, You're such a beautiful girl, so cute and very smart. Love you

How about the price of one unit small aircraft sir?

Just wondering why they use Rotax engines. Thought there was a better option. Doesn't even sound like an aircraft.

Very neat to see the process and the people that make it possible to make such a great product.

typical south African, see's an item in the office that dont belong there, ask out loudly (I dont why this is here) looks around for answers.lol.🤣just a note we south africans do everything inhouse in majority of industries is much more cost effective and create work for the nation.

Hi Pilot Bambi,
Great videos! Please reach out next time you are in Roskilde, Denmark :-)
Which brand is your flight jacket from? Thanks!

Hey Bambi, I just discovered your super video showing the Sling Factory, I must say I am very impressed both by your job, very pro, friendly attitude, super presentation and great filming and editing (please congratulate your filming crew) and the also the amazing and huge setting of the factory. I know well the two "starters" of this fabulous Sling project, especially Mike Blyth as we have been on flying expeditions around the world from 1995 to 2004 (on trikes). When I met Mike back in 1993, he was building few trikes microlight in a very small hangar in Petite near Johannesburg, we both had a dream of flying over Africa and we teamed together for the best adventures in our lives.
I have been following the Sling adventure, been there at the factory where you are in this video and it
is amazing how huge they developped the company. So, I just had a great moment watching your super documentary and wanted to say thank you and wishing you the very best. Greetings from Geneva Switzerland. Olivier

I love factory tours. Please do more.

Super cool...

I did not see anything of the processes the camera guy his focusing only on the girl and the manger who talk make the vlog really bad

Thanks for this video. I loved it. Now when I order my tsi, I’ll know how it goes through the process and know the people that worked on it. Curious to get your thoughts on how flying the high wing was.

Bambiniiiiiiiiiiiii piloooooooooooot
👩‍✈🛩🪐

This was a highly informative video,thank you.

Pilot Bambi ,how can i get holf of you?

What a shame what we let happen in SA in 1994.......Kudos to the actual productive people still making things work down there. Stay safe.

This is super cool, do they also import or are they only working for the local market?

You should vacuum form your plexi...

Awesome awesome video.

Shop reminds me of backyard mechanics. Hand stitch everything with sewing machines.

I did catch a word that I understood every once in a while...

Great video!

there's no more such an innovative company like this in SA.

Great video, keep it up. What percentage of the components parts are locally manufactured and what percentage are imported. Who makes their engines? Are there some other component parts that are bought from other companies in South Africa if so, what percent are they?

Welcome to Somalia

It would be so fun to include price

Видимо они будущие конкуренты Cirrus !

that girl is so pretty thanks for the nice video

James looks like the man who gave Spike the Swordfish II in Cowboy Bebop

Sling is the only decent company out of SA!! If I buy anything and I see Africa as a receiver I cancel the order!!

No words... Just love South Africans

Respect for a South African company in manufacturing. They work in a very hostile environment (government).

Hi Bambi, It's a wonderful place to see how the small planes are built. The people are wonderful and I like the building of small planes Bambi in this place

Currently flying the Sling as a student pilot in the US, since my flight school has a few of them. AMAZING plane 🙂

Welcome to Somalia pilot bampi thanks for my teacher

He is sales representative the accent is way to much to have a well communication with customers ... great airplane

Hi

In theese small aircrafts all components are made unique or some parts are the same for other small planes as well? Like engines, other components?

Very, very impressive. 😜

SOUTH AFRICA SHOULD BE SO PROUD 👊

Ladies and Gentlemen
You are watching sub-Saharan Africa's first industrial revolution in progress.
At last!

It was recorded twenty-seven years after the end of apartheid.

I am an African American, and I am so happy to see the Sling employees so many local Africans to help produce these beautiful airplanes. I will submit my resume.

Hey everyone! This is a completely different video style from what I have ever posted before, so I am SUPER interested to know what you all think of it. I'd love to share more informative content, showing all the incredible innovations in the aviation industry (and from all around the world) Leave a comment down below and share what you think!! xx Bambi
