Sling 4 down at Caloundra

A good friend flipped his brand new Sling 4 this afternoon. Two rear passengers ok. Pilot himself and front passenger trapped more than hour . Pilot in Royal Brisbane Hospital in serious condition. Passenger wirh moderate injuries in Sunshine Coast Hospital. No fire post impact is a miracle.

Bugger it! Aircraft has only just been signed off after its 25 hours, holding thumbs for a good outcome for pilot and pax.
