SLING H2 - HYDROGEN FLIGHT
SA Flyer Magazine
|December 2024
A team of aeronautical students and their lecturers in Switzerland are building a Sling High Wing with hydrogen propulsion.
-
THEIR EARLIER E-SLING project has evolved into the Cellsius Aero. Their goal is to enable sustainable aviation by being the first student team to build an aircraft powered by hydrogen. They are using the Sling High Wing and hope to achieve performance of:
• 2 hours of cruising flight.
• 200 km range
• A hydrogen aircraft that does not emit CO².
In-house developments of components enable them to achieve the highest compatibility and the lowest possible weight – two crucial factors in maximising the efficiency and range of the aircraft.
At the same time, they are committed to the highest safety standards. Every component, from the inverter to the modular battery, has been intensively tested to meet the demanding requirements of aviation.

THE TIGER SAGA

THE FABULOUS CHIPMUNK My favourite plane
I have been privileged to have flown the most fantastic variety of planes - from the Denel Cheetah for an air-to-air refuelling mission, to a ninety-year-old Tiger Moth.
