Flying Colours to install medevac cabins in three Challenger 650s
Design engineering has begun in St Louis

Maintenance and modification specialist Flying Colours (Stand G066) has received an order for the completion of three Bombardier Challenger 650s. A subcontract from the aircraft manufacturer, it consists of medevac interiors for an undisclosed European customer.

Design engineering is under way at Flying Colours’ St Louis, Missouri, facility; the installation of the cabin and external paint will take place at the company’s workshop in Peterborough, Canada. “This is a collaborative project as we are working through the Bombardier team to liaise with their customer on the design, while at the same time we are working with a specialist medical equipment provider who will supply the medical monuments,” Flying Colours’s vice president Sean Gillespie, Flying Colours. The first delivery is scheduled for the fourth quarter of next year.
