Aircraft Upholstery & Interiors
From a single seat re-cover to a full cabin transformation, Saxton Aero builds and manages aircraft interiors that look exceptional and meet every FAA requirement — burn testing, weight & balance, and logbook-legal documentation included.
What we build
Custom interiors, end to end
Work in-house or through our managed vendor network — either way, Saxton owns the outcome.
Custom seat upholstery
Leather, Ultraleather, and sheepskin re-dye and re-cover for GA singles and twins — seat shells, sidewalls, and armrests finished to OEM or better.
Carpets, sidewalls & headliners
Cut-and-sewn wool and synthetic carpets, acoustic sidewall panels, and headliners with new insulation and sound-damping while the interior is out.
Interior vendor management
We specify the scope, source and vet the shop, and manage schedule and quality so you get one accountable point of contact — not three vendors blaming each other.
FAA compliance assurance
Every material and installation is matched to Part 23 requirements. Nothing goes back in the airplane without the paperwork that proves it belongs there.
Compliance is the point
FAA requirements, handled by us
A beautiful interior without the paperwork is a grounded airplane. Every Saxton interior ships with its compliance package complete.
14 CFR 23.853 burn certification
Flammability testing and material certification for every seat, carpet, and panel installed — the item A&Ps and owners most often get caught on.
Weight & balance update
Revised weight & balance and equipment list reflecting interior changes, computed and delivered with the job.
Logbook entries & Form 337 where required
Airworthy logbook endorsements and a 337 package for major alterations, reviewed with your A&P / IA before sign-off.
Material traceability file
A permanent record of lot numbers, certificates, and installer data — ready for pre-buy inspections and future resale.
How it works
From walkaround to airworthy paperwork
- Step 1
Consultation
Walk the aircraft, define the mission (family hauler, charter, training), and set the materials palette and budget envelope.
- Step 2
Specification
Written scope: materials, panels, colors, sound-damping, and the compliance deliverables required — quoted against vetted shops or done in-house.
- Step 3
Build & manage
Scheduled teardown, install oversight, and quality checks at each stage — you get photo updates, not surprises.
- Step 4
Compliance & handover
Burn certs, weight & balance, and logbook documentation delivered as a bound package before the airplane leaves.
Delivered with every job
