THE PROJECT
This project saw our team working on the seating and crash rail covers for a Robinson R44 helicopter. These parts used for this project can be purchased on Generation Global’s website.
GALLERY
The seat covers and cushions for this helicopter were the Generation II styling. We manufactured the covers, as well as the crash-rail, from Rye Beige leather (ADI-4221). Each cover also sported a Navy Blue (ADI-2021) insert made with perforated leather (SP1 perforation). Those inserts were further complemented by navy blue piping along each seat edge. And, as the finishing touch, a client-requested custom logo was debossed into the upper panel of each backrest seat cover.
The crash-rail cover is a wrap-around cover and cushion, fitted to the rail between the forward and aft cabin. This is designed to give the passengers some HIC protection in the event of a crash. The cover is made from leather-wrapped foam and is secured around the rail using velcro, which is stitched directly onto the cover.
