Heavy Refurbishment on Embraer Legacy 600 — How to meet the high expectations of a design- and detail-loving, but price-conscious aircraft owner.

The owner of this Legacy 600 is a full-blooded businessman and tough negotiator. He sees his aircraft first and foremost as an investment – but it was still particularly important to him that the interior of his aircraft be given a very personal touch and recognition value.

Use-case: Commercial Air Transport / Charter Operations & Owner Operations

Sales Lead: AeroVisto

Interior design: AeroVisto

Cooperation: Jet Flight Service, Riga

Scope highlights: Special Design Carpet; Décor Film Application, Stay Clean Lifetime+ Leather Technology

So the challenge in this project was to meet the high expectations of a design- and detail-loving, but price-conscious aircraft owner. We were happy to accept this challenge.

How did we convince this client to choose AeroVisto? With a suitable mix of design, individuality, professional competence and the high quality of our craftsmanship. Since he had already flown with business jets of Air Hamburg and other charter airlines, that had been refurbished and rejuvenated by AeroVisto, our client knew in advance what he could expect from us. From the very beginning, he had concrete ideas about how „his“ Interior should look.

After numerous renderings and visualizations, which the customer received in advance according to his specifications, the final design and matching materials, were contractually fixed during a final visit to our showroom in Staad.

What were the special highlights of the project from our point of view?

There is the handmade carpet, which immediately catches the eye when you enter the cabin. It was designed and produced exactly according to the customer’s wishes. Attention was paid in detail to ensure that the carpet harmonized with the overall interior.

The colors were matched to the tone of the cabin’s side panels and the yarn was produced in the exact color of the leather upholstery.

To lay the carpet – and install the other interior elements – our team spent 2 weeks on site at the aircraft’s location in Riga, Latvia, where it was simultaneously undergoing its 12-year check at JF Service.

One of the wishes of the owner of this Legacy 600 was that the entire interior was and inviting. A feelgood environment was to be created, but it still had to look modern.

This modern touch was achieved by using a dark film application with a wooden look. On the one hand, it provides a nice contrast to the bright leather – and at the same time, it covers the old wood decor of the elements that had always bothered the owner since he bought his plane.

As the customer was already familiar with our film applications from other aircraft, and was enthusiastic about the numerous options and advantages they offer, the decision for this form of surface finishing was obviously easy for him.

This owner also had special ideas for the light-colored passenger seats, which were of course finished in leather with Stahl Stay Clean technology. In addition to the eye-catching double-seam diamond stitching, he wanted a detail that only the attentive observer would notice: leather with a grain in stingray leather look. We appreciate such detail-loving customers and were happy to realize this wish as well.

A real challenge was the mirror installation on the rear wall of the passenger cabin, where not only the plain areas but also the curves had to be taken into account. The convincing result was worth all the effort.

We are pleased to present this client case to you. It shows how much dynamics and potential there is in a refurbishment project when an aircraft owner approaches us with a specific idea and at the same time is willing to be advised by us about the numerous options and possibilities. In this way, individual aircraft interiors are created that both excite the customer and fit the budget at the same time.
