Cessna Cuts Red Tape for Interior Refurbs

If you're the owner of a classic Cessna Citation model in need of some dressing up, you have one reason to look kindly on these tough economic times. Cessna announced on Monday a new program streamlining the process of refurbishing Citation interiors. Named the RightNow Interiors program, Cessna's initiative is aimed to reduce lead time for ordering interior refurb materials from the usual eight to 12 weeks down to zero. Citation service centers will now stock five preselected materials packages, allowing last-minute scheduling of interior work. And lest you think you're limited by the constraints of a pre-determined décor selection, Cessna reports there are more than 2,000 custom looks available by combining elements of the in-stock material packages.
