If you want a factory-built Sling with a full Garmin IFR panel and none of the build time, this 2023 Sling LSA is worth a close look. With 380 hours on the airframe, engine, and prop, a clean damage history, and complete logbooks since it left the factory, it's ready for cross-country flying or a low-cost training role.

Highlights

  • 380 hours total time, engine 380 SNEW, prop 380 hours

  • 2 seats, Light Sport, IFR equipped

  • Fuel-injected Rotax 912 iS with FADEC, burning about 3.4 GPH in cruise

  • Dual Garmin G3X PFD and MFD with battery backup

  • Garmin GTN 650Xi GPS/NAV/COM

  • GMC 507 autopilot with ESP and LVL button

  • 411 lb useful load, 39.6 gallon fuel capacity

Why This One Stands Out

This Sling LSA was optioned for real-world flying, not just local hops:

  • Garmin SmartGlide for added peace of mind in an engine-out scenario

  • Garmin G5 backup instrument

  • GTX 45R remote-mount transponder

  • DUC Flash Carbon ground-adjustable prop, currently pitched for climb to suit the high density altitude at Prescott (KPRC)

  • Typical cruise around 117 knots with a 16,000 ft service ceiling

  • No damage history, 9/10 exterior and 10/10 interior

  • Sling lists the direct operating cost at $56 per hour, making it a strong fit for personal use or a flight school fleet

Inspection Status

The aircraft will be sold with a fresh annual condition inspection, so the next owner starts with a clean slate.

The Bottom Line

This Sling LSA pairs a complete Garmin IFR panel with the fuel efficiency the Rotax 912 iS is known for. Moderate time, organized logs, and a solid equipment list make it a practical choice for a pilot who wants to fly now, or an operator looking for an affordable trainer.
