An Aircraft With A Bite

This recent paint refurbishment completed at Duncan Aviation in Provo, Utah, carries on the owner’s tradition of incorporating shark fins into his fleet—this time in a bold and realistic way. The approved design features a Matterhorn White base with rich ocean blues. The flowing stripes were adjusted on-site during the layout process to ensure the waves seamlessly transition onto the tail, giving the impression of a shark slicing through water. Both winglets carry smaller-scale shark fins, positioned so passengers can view them directly from the cabin windows.

Now that Duncan's Provo location has the capabilities for large scale completion projects, Molly has been experimenting and looking for new innovative ways to give the customer an aircraft that truly matches their vision. “I am especially fond of a Global that we just recently completed” says Molly. “We were going for a very neutral tone on tone interior and we decided to give our teams a little challenge and veneer the lower sidewalls throughout the aircraft. The end product turned out amazing and it has been one of my favorite projects to date.”
