Piper Navajo PA-31-310 Full Cabin Refurbishment – Luxury Redefined
Project Summary
This project involved a complete interior refurbishment of a Piper Navajo PA-31-310, carried out by the Generation Global team in New Zealand. The scope of work included new wall and ceiling linings, floor coverings, and a full upgrade of the seating and trim components throughout the cabin.
Gallery: New Interior Features and Materials
The aircraft’s wall and ceiling linings were completely redone using Milkweed vinyl, providing a fresh, neutral-toned canvas for the interior. This included the lower sidewalls, window trims, and headlining panels, all seamlessly finished in the same milkweed tone for a cohesive aesthetic.
Each cabin window was fitted with a split curtain, upgraded to Papyrus fabric, which complements the light tones of the walls and ceiling.
Between the club-class passenger seats, the fold-out tray tables were refinished with a sleek black carbon fibre decorative film. The forward cabin bulkhead, separating the cockpit from the passenger area, also received this bold carbon fibre wrap, offering a modern and professional touch.
The floor coverings were manufactured from Genflor Ash carpet, extending throughout the main cabin and partially up the lower sidewalls for added insulation and acoustic dampening.
The rear entry door was refinished in white vinyl (102), with black vinyl accents behind the folding steps. To enhance safety and traction, the steps themselves were treated with a black non-slip surface. The door draught excluder was also rewrapped in white vinyl (102) for a uniform finish.
Seating Details: Club-Class Comfort Meets Premium Materials
The aircraft's six rear passenger seats were fully reupholstered in Regal Blue leather, featuring white leather (ADI-1021) diamond-quilted inserts (pattern SA001). All seams were completed with white contrast stitching, offering a striking, high-end look. This blue-and-white color theme was carried through to the rear cabin bulkhead, with a central Regal Blue panel flanked by white leather sections for visual balance.
The two cockpit crew seats were fitted with Oxford Grey sheepskin covers, framed with Regal Blue leather borders, combining pilot comfort with style.
For added cockpit refinement, the glare shield eyebrow was rewrapped in black UV-resistant vinyl, and the forward panels were trimmed in mouse-hair black fabric, a popular material in aviation interiors for its premium look and tactile quality.
