Aircraft painting is a complex and fascinating process. The first step involves thoroughly removing the old paint using specialized materials, exposing the aircraft’s surface and preparing it for a fresh coat. The new paint is then applied in multiple layers, a process that typically takes between 7 to 10 days, depending on the complexity of the livery.
The fleet-wide repainting will be carried out gradually, with the first aircraft already landing last week, showcasing its new look.
