Starling Aerospace was awarded a project to develop a new interior for a BAe146, and teamed with AeroDAC for the certification. This installs a luxury configuration on the Avro Business Jet (ABJ) which is now being operated for VIP charter. Starling have developed a strong capability to design and manufacture cabin interior components.  aeroDAC and Starling have built a very successful partnership, covering the design and certification of minor changes and STCs for a wide range of cabin interior work.

The STC installs a VIP configuration on the aircraft, with 46 luxury reclining seats with chameleon wood effect finish and deep cushions with premium leather finish. Also installed are a new divider with sumptuous veneers, deep high quality carpets, a new galley and refurbished overhead bins, sidewalls and overhead panels. The seats were tested and re-qualified to allow the changes necessary for this modification to be certified.
