Gulfstream G200 gains stunning Duncan refurb
Duncan’s customer took advantage of the downtime to complete the 192-month inspection and to completely transform and customise the aircraft interior, exterior paint, and equip it with a high-speed connectivity.
The G200’s paint and interior refurbishment includes a merlot paint scheme accented with gold details, a custom interior and connectivity upgrades.

Duncan Aviation has recently completed a paint and interior refurbishment of a Gulfstream G200 at its full-service facility in Lincoln, Nebraska. Designed by Autumn Elizabeth Design and executed by Duncan Aviation, the aircraft now boasts a luxurious merlot paint scheme accented with elegant gold details, a custom interior and connectivity upgrades.

“When the aircraft first came to us, the interior and exterior had seen better days. It was looking tired and lacked an inflight connectivity solution,” says senior modifications and completions sales rep Jeff Beaudette. “They took advantage of the downtime to complete the 192-month inspection to completely transform and customise their aircraft interior, exterior paint and equip it with a high-speed connectivity system.”

The interior of the G200 is impressive, featuring off-white leather seating highlighted with merlot piping that perfectly complements the exterior. The foam and leather were cut using the upholstery automation technology in Lincoln, and the custom quilted inserts were completed using the CNC quilting machine in Battle Creek, Michigan.

The new stone countertops in the galley and lavatory feature a merlot vein that enhances the piping in the seating and exterior paint.

The plush wool carpet is unique to the customer and creates a cohesive cabin environment, while the off-white Ultraleather headliners, PSU panels and upper sidewalls add an extra elegant touch that brings new life to the interior.

In addition to the aesthetic enhancements, the aircraft received significant technological upgrades. A Gogo Avance L5 system has been installed, providing passengers with fast and reliable inflight connectivity.
