AIME 2010: Personalising your aircraft makes one man Happy

The French company was set up by Didier Wolff eight years ago who started off designing surf boards until he decided to combine his creative skills with his passion for aviation a year ago.

“In 1998 I learnt how to fly a single engine aircraft so being able to personalise and customise aircraft with my design skills is a great joy for me,” says Wolff.

“I can customise commercial airlines, private and military aircraft. The external decoration of a private jet is dependent on the owner’s desire to reveal an aspect of his personality or to impose his company’s character or image. The customer can leave the design ideas to me or have their own idea but either way I always have a good understanding with them.”

The artwork created is applied to a volume such as the fuselage which acts as a second skin which is delicately laid to the body.

Wolff works alongside engineering company Aeroconseil who specialise in aviation and ensures that the EASA rules are applied to the engineering drawings and certification dossier.

“They then recommend a workshop who specialise in aeronautic painting to add that grand finale of the splash of colour to the design. Wherever the plane is located a number of specialised companies can be recommended in Europe, Asia, the Americas and, of course, the Middle East.

Wolff is here at AIME following the success of his launch at the Dubai Air show last year.

“It is very exciting for me to be here and I look forward to meeting with potential customers,” says Wolff.
