Citation 560

This Cessna Citation 560 came to InteriorWorks with its originally installed interior, which the customer generally liked. However, the carpet was a different and unfortunate story. Living in the Pacific NW and having a dog as an extra travel companion meant that the owners needed a new carpet that could hide fur, as well as withstand the weather and resultant dirty feet typical to our NW climate. InteriorWorks suggested a wool replacement carpet for its hardwearing quality, yet luxurious feel.

InteriorWorks accommodated these needs by suggesting a two color wool carpet with a looped pile. The two color blend assures the greatest camouflage of dog hair and dirt, while the looped pile prevents loose fuzz balls (normally associated with wool carpet) from forming. The updated carpet dramatically reduces the negative effects of weather and pet shedding, and lends the aircraft as a whole a more modern and clean feel—enhancing moods on those grey NW winter flights!

Aero Commander

Replacing the worn carpet was InteriorWorks’ first project with this Aero Commander Jet-Prop 1000B. We installed new carpet throughout the flight deck, passenger compartment, lavatory, and baggage compartment. We suggested a deeper hued carpet that is more masculine, hard-wearing, and complimentary to the evolving interior than its predecessor.

The Aero Commander’s owner was pleased to receive the aircraft back in service ahead of schedule and under budget. He later returned for more cabin updates with InteriorWorks–stay tuned for a later post detailing updates to the sidewalls, cabin textiles, and flight deck seats.
