West Star Aviation recently completed a custom paint finish on a new, factory delivered Embraer Praetor 600, a first for the company.
The new aircraft was brought to West Star directly from the factory at the request of the customer for a unique and custom paint job. With our state-of-the-art paint facility, we are capable of handling large and small paint projects, as well as being a one-stop shop for our customers and their requests.
"It's always exciting to be involved in the custom designs we offer, especially when it's a clean slate straight from the factory," said Tom Modrick, Embraer/Textron Program Manager, GJT. "We believe our customers continue to select West Star for their aviation needs because of our wide range of services, including custom jobs such as this one," Modrick continued.
