2022 THE Airplane Factory Sling LSAUltralight Aircraft

This 2022 The Airplane Factory Sling LSA (N568RC) presents as a well-equipped factory-built light sport aircraft with 1,385 hours total time since new. Powered by a fuel-injected Rotax 912 iS engine producing 100 HP (2,000-hour TBO) with recent January 2025 annual inspection showing strong compression readings between 78-79 across all cylinders, it's paired with a Whirlwind three-blade propeller showing the same time since new. The aircraft features a capable Garmin glass panel suite including PFD/MFD, GTN 650W GPS, G5 backup instrument, and GFC 500 autopilot with altitude hold, making it IFR-capable and qualifying as a Technically Advanced Aircraft for training purposes.

With a useful load of 470 lbs and baggage capacity of 11 lbs, this Sling LSA demonstrates efficient performance at less than 5 gallons per hour fuel burn while cruising at 115 knots, resulting in an average operating cost of $56 per hour. The interior features very good condition black and grey leather seats with four-point restraints, while the exterior white-with-black-trim paint scheme shows equally well-maintained. Additional features include USB ports, LED lighting, strobes, and pitot heat. The aircraft has no damage history and complete maintenance logs are available, having been maintained by Rotax-certified mechanics. Its 39.6-gallon fuel capacity supports its design mission of recreational flying, short trips, and flight instruction.
