RUAG Aviation in Munich has repainted a Bombardier Global Express XRS on behalf of long-term customer SBK Holding Ltd. The operator selected a full repaint of its eight-year-old aircraft to reinforce its corporate image. As part of the project RUAG reproduced a series of hand-painted, precise customised graphics highlighting the intricate patterns found in high performance, fibre-reinforced technology materials such as carbon and honeycomb structures.

“Our business jets customers can expect a flexible and integrated approach from a responsive organisation,” says senior VP Volker Wallrodt. “Our status as a full service Bombardier authorised service centre, combined with our one-stop-shop of quality aircraft support solutions, ensures our Bombardier customers have access to all services within the same designated downtime.”
