This project involved enhancing an AS350 helicopter that already had a Generation Global interior by adding new floor coverings, installing new ceiling inserts, and fitting a rear bulkhead kit.

  • Floor Coverings:

    • Utility vinyl flooring was selected for its durability and waterproof properties, with a raised penny-shaped grip surface in black.

    • The floor design was cut from digital patterns using a CNC laser cutter, ensuring precise, straight lines. Adjustments were made to accommodate the aftermarket dual seat.

    • The flooring was installed and secured with door sill plates, ensuring a tight and clean finish.

  • Ceiling and Rear Bulkhead:

    • The ceiling panels and rear bulkhead were crafted from closed-cell foam and covered in charcoal grey synthetic leather.

    • These panels not only improve the aesthetic appeal but also help with noise absorption during flight, enhancing passenger comfort.

  • Plastic Linings:

    • The plastic cabin interior parts (including door panels, ceiling liner, seat frame, and instrument panel) were painted in matt black to blend seamlessly with the rest of the cabin.

    • The instrument panel received new placards, ensuring all controls were clearly labeled and professionally presented.

This upgrade improved the functionality and comfort of the helicopter while maintaining a clean, sleek aesthetic throughout.
