Interior Notes
Interior updated in 2021. Seven-seat configuration with two cockpit seats and four-place club seating. Potty seat and aft refreshment center/bar are currently removed, but both are included with the aircraft. Beige leather seats and side panels, beige pilot and copilot sheepskin covers, beige seat belts and shoulder harnesses, and beige carpet. The cabin is nicely appointed with dual executive tables, under-seat drawers, Rosen monorail sun visors, Soundex soundproofing, updated window shades, USB-C charging ports, and LEMO 6-pin panel power for pilot and copilot with dual plug headset capability.
Exterior Notes
Aircraft was stripped and refinished in 2017 by Kracon Aircraft Inc. using Akzo Nobel 10P8-11 primer, Northstar MIPWN0006 Fleet White base color, Akzo Nobel 4200 Aristo Blue G20020 trim, and Axalta AF400 P2352 Chrome Yellow accent trim. The result is a sharp, classic Golden Eagle scheme with a bright white base and rich blue and yellow accent striping that gives the aircraft an elegant ramp presence while still keeping the look clean and timeless. Polished spinners complete the exterior presentation.
