Brightening the skies over Idaho!

What a way to close out the week! Express exterior on a Cessna 185 and a new plane prep for a Scout delivery tomorrow. I am starting to understand the saying about doing what you enjoy and never working a day in your life.

Scouting some new territory

A light detail to prep this American Champion Scout for showing a perspective buyer was the order of the day. Wash, wax and a little plexiglass polishing. All in a days work!

Washed for the weekend!

Sometimes I get asked if I do just a simple wash. The answer is NO! I do perform a wash service, but it is NOT a “simple wash”. In the case of regularly maintained aircraft, a wash may be all that is needed before a flight and this is a service we certainly perform. Yes we polish aluminum; yes we do polish painted surfaces; yes we perform very thorough interior cleaning. However, when a wash is needed, great attention to caring for you aircraft is taken to prevent damage and keep it air worthy. An aircraft should never be subjected to a quick, or even simple, wash. The next time your aircraft needs a safe and detail oriented wash, call Elite Motorsports.

Aircraft ready for delivery

This 1977 Cessna 206 Turbo is ready for delivery to its new owner. Clean belly, polished spinner, cleaned interior and waxed exterior. Too bad the new owner won’t see it like this. It, unfortunately, must be flown to its new home.

Think freedom!

Aircraft detailing has allowed me the opportunity to see some very historic aircraft. This P51 Mustang is no exception. Remember the freedom these pieces of history represent!

Presidents’ Day memories

Presidents’ Day has brought back some memories. I won’t soon forget the honor of joining a great team of detailers charged with polishing SAM 970 at the Museum of Flight near Seattle.
The photo is of yours truly harnessed up in a man lift polishing the top of the fuselage. What a great week!
