aircraft restoration

Aircraft restoration involves carefully repairing, refurbishing, and preserving historic or damaged aircraft to return them to their original condition or appearance. This process includes restoring structural components, repainting, and replacing parts while maintaining authenticity. Skilled technicians often research historical details to ensure accuracy. Restorations can be for museums, collections, or airshows, helping preserve aviation history. It requires a combination of engineering, craftsmanship, and attention to detail to ensure the aircraft is both visually true to its era and airworthy if intended to fly.
