Gulfstream G450

Industry leading designer Sarah Mespelt Larrañaga partnered with StandardAero to deliver a beautifully crafted and customized Gulfstream G450 that embodies Paris Hilton’s global brand and personality.

Larrañaga’s design and development of the Paris Hilton “SlivAir” G450 and StandardAero’s refurbishment of key airframe components centered on creating an unforgettable one-of-a-kind experience as unique as Paris.

“This is a preferred location for me (StandardAero – Springfield, IL) for over 15 years since I consider it to be the best cabinet shop in the market and also the best for exterior paint. StandardAero checks every box from upholstery, to finish, exterior paint, latest and greatest avionics, sales support and program management.”

– Sarah Mespelt Larrañaga, SlivAir Designer and Project Manager

The “SlivAir” experience includes:

Sparkling pearl and custom developed “Paris Pink” exterior paint

Logos and branding throughout the exterior and interior

Custom ALTO sound system

Branded and customized CMS system with a special flight safety demonstration from Paris Hilton

Dynamic lighting system pre-programmed with 16 shades of pink

One-of-a-kind pink clouds and hummingbird header graphics

Beautifully crafted pearl seating with pink piping, branded buckles, and special Paris accents

Make-up organizers, make-up refrigerator, and in-counter microwave

Branded entry stair steps

Custom pilot seats

Star accented carpet

StandardAero was hand-selected as the maintenance, modification and installation service provider on this project and worked hand-in-hand with Larrañaga, providing her with airframe MRO expertise, design support, and workmanship needed to not only deliver a beautiful plane, but the experience of a lifetime.
