I sold mine (wgk) to Big Al approx a year ago, she served me well for 10 years- never missed a beat, ever, she is still flying (from Springs) as far as i know, manufactured in 1989 if i recall correctly.

One at Morningstar in a Quick Silver, had an engine out on the last flight and landed in a field. No fault of the engine tho', the owner only flies about once a year and then doesn't even do a proper preflight. It was fuel related that caused the engine out. It hasn't flown for more than an year now.

Are you perhaps refering to ZS-WMG? That is the best looking windlass I've seen in a looong time.Blue Angel wrote:I have one - 900 hours later still going strong!!
