Distribution of WW in most of western Europe has been shifted to a new company, Seagull Aviation.

This is not quite correct. What has happened is that Wills Wing has granted an exclusive distributorship for Holland and Belgium to Seagull Aviation, and also granted them the non exclusive rights to market WW gliders in Germany, and part of France. Markus Villinger of Airwave Gliders, a valued business partner of Wills Wing for 25 years, remains the exclusive distributor for Austria and Italy, and shares the rights to market in Germany. We also have many other authorized dealers in Europe who are quite active in the other European countries, including Switzerland, France, Norway, Sweden, etc. Our dealers can be found listed on our website, both for the US and worldwide.

We welcome Seagull Aviation to the WW family, and we also especially welcome Harald Zimmer and Bautek to our distribution network. I had the opportunity to spend several days with Harald, along with Ton Draaijer and Diederik Meeussen of Seagull Aviation at the recent Free Flight Show at Garmisch in Germany, and all of us at WW are quite excited about the future prospects for WW sales in Europe
