I endorsed Don Ingraham as a winch CFI-G and gave a lot of other pilots got
their first winch rides. I think Don is doing winch checkouts on weekdays
for now. I suggest calling ahead. See:

It's nice to have one commercial operation using a winch - at least part
time.

My understanding is that Frank Whiteley and Bill Daniels qualified a
commercial operator and several local pilots/CFIs on winch
operations somewhere in Minnesota.
Please tell me which airport and operator contact info?
Were any of you there?
Have you heard about this?
Will you consider going to a commercial operator to train and get
your winch signoff?
Note, we do winch operations with our membership at Owl Canyon
Gliderport (4CO2), Colorado Soaring Association, Wellington,
Colorado.
