Perhaps an interesting side note. The late A.C. Williams was heavily
involved as a key consultant to Grob during the development of the
Egrett.

At one point the aircraft was housed in one half of Southwest
Soaring's hangar, with a large hanging curtain cutting off view from
the other half of the hangar.
