Note: Whirlwind closed the Ohio sales office in Feb 2023 and operated only out of their headquarters near San Diego.<br>
Note: Whirlwind was acquired by Hartzell in March 2024.<br>
Note: Whirlwind moved the whole company to Ohio, nothing left in San Diego.<br>
Note: Whirlwind's packaging is inadequate (see this [https://www.facebook.com/groups/vansrv10/posts/7892871690833861 FB post]), either pick it up or get it packed into a crate.
