That is a beautiful widgeon! Wish I could swing it. Curious why you listed this and the RG as “this is the real price”?

My understanding is that a hula girl on the dash was a 91.205 required item in the Widgeon. Other than that significant oversight, this one looks perfect.
I think the most fun I’ve ever had in an airplane was in a Widgeon. If only I could find room in the hangar. Good luck with the sale and congrats in advance to the next steward.

Pretty much everything a Lake owner dreams about.

I'm pretty easily confused but why is the chart in your photo up side down? Looks to be located over the jump seats, so when you tilt your head back to see it. . .
