| Tempe, Arizona, — Associated Air Center, a Landmark Aviation company at Dallas Love Field, has delivered a completed Boeing 757-200, featuring a contemporary interior. “This refurbishment demonstrates once again the high level of craftsmanship that Associated Air Center is uniquely qualified to provide,” said Jeff Bosque, President of AAC. Associated Air Center completed the original interior on the aircraft in 1994, when the aircraft was owned by a different customer. In the intervening years Associated Air Center has performed all of the regularly scheduled maintenance checks on the Boeing 757-200. The interior refurbishment began when the aircraft arrived at the Associated Air Center facility in Dallas in October 2006. The custom designed aircraft interior features a contemporary design, with light, earthy tones throughout the entire aircraft, which gives a sense of tremendous space and light. Associated Air Center is a Designated Completion Center and a Factory Authorized Service Center for the Boeing Business Jet. The company has three BBJ aircraft currently in-house and also is contracted for interior modifications later this year and in 2008. Associated Air Center offers a full range of design and luxurious completion options for transport-class aircraft. Associated Air Center’s experienced staff works with customers from original concept through the design of the floor plan to selection of fabric, furniture and fixture fabrication, and the integration of cabin and cockpit systems. Aircraft owners from around the world rely on Associated Air Center for new customer interiors as well as refurbishment of an existing interior.
