ZU-OMG Sling 4
The Economical Cruiser
OMG has a memorable and fun registration that is a joy to use on the radio. Equipped with an MGL EFIS loaded with the best Navidata in the country courtesy of Aviation Direct/Easy Plan she works well for exploring the lesser known parts of the country. The feedback we normally receive when somebody has flown her is,” Way faster than I thought,” and, “Really easy to fly.”
