    Description
    This may be the most photographed Widgeon ever!? Google N244GW to see numerous pictures on the ground and in the air! The plane started out life working for Standard Oil in Houston. It has served in the Cuban Navy and spent considerable time in Alaska and Canada. It was once owned by Tim Horton (think Dunkin Donuts of Canada). The plane is outfitted with four folding seats in the cabin and was set up as a hunting and fishing sport plane and may be one of the lightest Widgeons in service. I have owned the plane for eight years and hope to see it go to a good home!
