It was about 1,362 NM and in ideal conditions that would be about 11 hours but we encountered a lot of weather which caused us to divert and slowed us down. Thanks for asking!
Bravo Zulu, Job Well Done.
Great flight guys - Did the FAGM to Oshkosh and back to FAGM in 1994 with a friend in a Navajo - Brings back good memories - We did the northern route and still recall a KLM 747 pilot calling us up between Reykjavik (Iceland) and Narsarsauq (Grrenland) wishing us a good flight and saying he would swap seats anyday.
Seriously well done guys great planes great company people cheers you have my vote
You only have to worry about a headwind if you're underpowered. Change that.
Loved seeing the DR killer at 2:24
I had a bit of a tier in my eye when JP made it to Oshkosh. I’d trade my Sling 4, for a high wing any day. JP is the man…. :)

Thanks for the kind words, Paul. Enjoy the rest of the videos!
Best trip I've been able to follow...many miles , ocean, weather...Great flying...thank you for the incredible experience.
You don’t need a clearance to cross class delta, just two-way communication.
What’s is your takeoff roll abort plan? Blind aircraft plan? Lost visual contact and rejoin plan? Formation contracts? Formation positions? Lost comms plan? Do you have or do a formation brief? The reason I ask is formation flying is complicated, can be dangerous, requires training and meticulous planning, and just prompting questions you might not have considered before. Unknown unknowns…
Great video. JP rules lol
Every body has heard of Lindbergh now we have heard of the 3 Slings what more needs to be said.
As a retired ex-pilot and living in Jaybay, South Africa, I really enjoyed the 3 videos and shared your excitement of the flight from Jozi to Oshkosh. Be safe guys.
Thanks for this video, really fascinated by the Sling High Wings. I was there at Oshkosh earlier in the week (stayed night before at Rockford IL and flew-in Sunday morning while the field was still IFR). Wanted to see the High Wings in-person but they arrived the same day I had to leave. I already have a plane now, but a Sling High-Wing is my dream/upgrade/retirement airplane for next.
What happened to your (Jess's) Leg? had a Rough landing ??? (just kidding, hope you heal-up soon.)
You just cannot beat the look of the tail dragger
This was another awesome video! What an adventure
