Duncan upgrades CMS Venue during 900EX EASy refit
The Duncan customer wanted their Falcon 900EX EASy to almost be identical to their 7X, complete with a matterhorn white base and gold and navy stripes.
The overall design features a lot of leather and dark, heavily grained veneer mixed with textures to help soften the overall space.

Duncan Aviation teams in Battle Creek, Michigan, have recently delivered a Falcon 900EX EASy complete with new paint, interior and a Collins Aerospace CMS Venue upgrade. It was also the make/model STC launch aircraft for the ACA ionisation system.

The Duncan customer loved the look and feel of their Falcon 7X, so they wanted the 900EX EASy to be identical. The customer wanted the exterior paint to match that of their 7X exactly, complete with a matterhorn white base and gold and navy stripes.

The overall design features a lot of leather and dark, heavily grained veneer mixed with textures to help soften the overall space. The interior is highlighted by plated tambour doors in the galley, embossed lower sidewalls, custom seats, frosted galley doors and plated trim.

“When the customer came to me with their 7X, they really liked the overall design, colour palette and feel of their 7X interior,” says lead designer Emily Krawzcak. “The only thing they really wanted to change was the original carpet because it didn't fit with the rest of the interior.

“In addition to changing the carpet, we updated the pillows and credenza pad fabric, and these details will be updated in their 7X, so the two aircraft will be mostly identical.”
