It’s all in
the detail.

Interior and exterior detailing for private aviation, by aviation professionals.

Aircraft age quietly. The leather that once felt supple grows firm. Carpets accumulate what vacuums miss. Paintwork loses its depth. Metal its lustre.

It happens gradually—until one day you step aboard and something feels different. The aircraft no longer matches the one you remember.

Horus restores what time takes.

Returning every surface to the standard it was built to.

Aircraft represent the pinnacle of design craft—hand-stitched leather, figured wood veneer, precision-woven textiles, engineered composites. Each material selected for how it looks, feels, and endures. We restore them with the same attention they were built with.

Aircraft detail

We understand aircraft the way their makers do.

Mobile. Meticulous. Aviation-native.
