Our Cessna 175 Skylark project is well on its way to becoming the most state-of-the-art Garmin avionics demonstrator in the UK. 

Our friends at Aerotech Paint, also based at Thruxton Aerodrome, have begun the delicate work of adding the paint details that will make this aircraft one of a kind. 

The aircraft will have a blue tail and white belly, while a feature black nose will connect to the tail section with swooping lines, following the contour of the wing above.

Special Garmin decals will be added, including their iconic triangle motif above the N of the tail number.

See the design here in one of our previous updates.

Aerofab Restorations, the leading Garmin Avionics sales and service centre, aims to prepare the aeroplane for summer 2024.
