LINCOLN, NEB. — Duncan Aviation’s latest CL-350 interior and exterior refresh is highlighted by refined luxury and understated elegance. For this project, the Duncan Aviation team focused specifically on enhancing the seats, lower sidewalls, carpet, curtains, and plating, resulting in a modern, cohesive upgrade that preserves the aircraft’s clean, contemporary aesthetic. The aircraft also received a new, custom paint refurbishment, 96-month, 4800-hour inspection, and Gogo AVANCE L5 install.

“We extend our sincere gratitude to the entire team at Duncan Aviation for their exceptional work on our CL-350,†said Manny, the Director of Maintenance. “We deeply appreciate the efforts of everyone involved with this project, from the sales team who secured our slot to the talented technicians who brought the project to life. I had the pleasure of meeting many great individuals through this project; please know we are grateful to each one of you.â€

Seating

The seats are the standout feature of this transformation. Reupholstered in a rich two-tone leather palette, the new design features warm mocha tones paired with a soft stone-gray accent. Diamond-pattern stitching adds a touch of tailored craftsmanship to the seat backs and cushions, while the smooth bolsters and headrests maintain a sleek silhouette.

Lower Sidewalls & Plating

The lower sidewalls feature a textured, woven fabric in a neutral taupe hue, which complements the leatherwork and surrounding veneer beautifully. Subtle yet polished, the plating has been refinished in a soft satin nickel tone, adding a touch of shimmer without overpowering the cabin’s natural warmth.

Carpet & Curtains

The newly installed carpet introduces a sense of movement and depth with its organic wave pattern in soft earth tones. It brings cohesion to the interior by tying together the leather, fabric, and wood elements. The refreshed curtains were also replaced to harmonize with the new soft goods, offering functionality while contributing to the aircraft’s elevated ambiance.

Paint

The exterior features a sleek and modern paint scheme that combines elegance with aerodynamic styling. The fuselage is finished in a high-gloss white base that serves as a clean canvas for bold black and metallic gold accent stripes. A prominent black stripe runs just below the windows along the upper fuselage, tapering smoothly toward the nose and continuing around the engine nacelles and tail base. Beneath it, a graceful gold stripe arcs along the body. The design carries through to the tail, where the black and gold striping continues across the vertical stabilizer, complemented by the registration number in metallic gold. Matching stripes also accent the winglets, tying the entire scheme together with visual continuity. The flowing, curved lines convey motion and sophistication, giving the aircraft a distinctive and polished presence on the ramp.
