GALLERY
The Piper Arrow's seating comprises two front seats and two single rear seats. All the seats were matching in style with headrests. The seat covers were manufactured using lead grey leather (ADI-1111) with the leather insert panels perforated. The Piper logo is debossed into the leather on the seat backs, giving it a feeling of depth and perspective. The stitching on the seating in the aircraft uses a silver-colored thread. The seat frames were also painted black, with new diaphragms attached and new foams attached.
The cabin lower sidewalls in the aircraft go from the floor to the window height. Above the lower sidewall panels are plastic panels that have been painted to match the headlining. The lower sidewall panels had carpet on the lower section and matching Lead Grey colour (ADI-1116) synthetic leather in the upper area. The leather used on the sidewall panels is synthetic leather and sports a horizontal line of piping down the length of the aircraft. The bottom sector of the door is also stylized to match the other linings.
The floorcoverings in the aircraft were black city carpet which was used for the cabin floor and lower sidewalls. The headlining in the aircraft was made using white vinyl. The headlining has the plastic center console running down the center of the ceiling. The instrument panel plastics in the aircraft were repaired and painted black, the glare shield was recovered in black UV-resistant vinyl. The control yokes in the aircraft were cleaned and resurfaced and new replacement leather grips were applied.
