Mike:

Then the new Seagulls must also be from a different factory.

In the past, side by side comparison of Vmar and Seagull showed that one was the same as the other, except for the labels. Both had the same factory phone number, also. And the international code was for Viet Nam.

More than this I do not know.

Bill.

PS: The two compared wwere the Pilatus PC-2 (?) and the Texan II. The Texan II was the Vmar. wr.
