Jet Aviation Basel was recently contracted by an undisclosed client for the vip cabin interior completions of a BBJ1 aircraft. The aircraft will be delivered green to the Basel completions center in the first quarter of 2014.

"The customer has selected the Basel completions center based on the scope of our in-house capabilities and the depth of our skills and experience in this distinguished market," said Ruedi Kraft, vice president, market development & completions sales, Jet Aviation Basel. "We are very excited about the prospect of transforming this empty aircraft into a fully functional, certifiable and unique vip aircraft interior."

"We pride ourselves in being inventive, yet practical," added Elisabeth Harvey, manager of the interior design studio. "By working in close collaboration with our engineering, production and purchasing teams, we understand specific opportunities and constraints affecting the design of the aircraft interior, which helps us outfit green aircraft with innovative design, state-of-the-art technology and uncompromising luxury - fully tailored to the precise wishes of the owner."

Jet Aviation has been completing aircraft at its Basel completions center since 1977 and has created more than 200 cabin interiors. The Jet Aviation Basel design studio was established in 2001 and employs 12 designers. Having created cabin interior designs for roughly 40 percent of the large, narrow- and wide-body aircraft it has completed, including three Boeing 747s, the design studio has successfully established strong working relationships with other design houses and world-renowned designers, some of whom are also specialized in vip aircraft interior design.
