Client Stories
Hear from aircraft owners who trusted us with their planes
Robert Martinez
Cessna 172 Owner"These guys transformed my old 1978 Cessna into something that looks like it rolled off the production line. The coral and white scheme they designed is absolutely stunning. Couldn't be happier with the results."
Sarah Chen
Pilatus PC-12 Owner"Our corporate jet needed a complete repaint and some structural repairs after a hangar incident. Blackhurst handled everything professionally. They even coordinated with our insurance company directly."
