First Sirius LSA Is Available For Demo Flight

High-Wing Airplane Joins The Sting From SportairUSA

The first Sirius SLSA from TL Ultralight is now available to fly. SportairUSA, LC, the North American distributor for the Sirius and the Sting S3, is offering introductory flights at the North Little Rock, Arkansas, Municipal Airport (KORK).

“This aircraft’s cabin is even more spacious than we anticipated,” said Bill Canino, President of SportairUSA. The Sirius interior measures 45” wide at the shoulders, 44” at the hips and sports considerably more head room and leg room than the typical light sport aircraft. Entry and exit are eased
by the generous doors and yoke steering. With ample luggage space, 33 gallons of fuel and 550 lbs useful load, Canino calls the Sirius “the perfect travel partner.”

The Sirius is the high-wing companion to the low-wing Sting. Both are certificated in the USA as special light sport aircraft and are manufactured by TL-Ultralight, s.r.o., in the Czech Republic. The Sirius, like the Sting, is a two passenger, carbon fiber composite, fixed-wing airplane powered by the 100 hp Rotax 912ULS engine and equipped with the industry’s fastest-opening GRS whole-plane ballistic parachute.

The Sirius comes fully equipped for cross-country flight. The instrument panel accommodates either a traditional six-pack arrangement of flight instruments or any of a variety of primary and multipurpose flight displays – from Dynon, Garmin, Grand Rapids Technologies and TruTrak – along with a full complement of avionics.
