Appearance management
Scheduled Aircraft Care
Professional aircraft appearance management tailored to your aircraft, utilisation and operating environment.
Structured care programmes keep your aircraft consistently clean, protected and presentation-ready throughout the year. Every schedule is tailored — visits adapt to the aircraft's condition and season rather than repeating identical work — and every visit is inspected, documented and reported.
Three programmes
One standard of management, three ways to receive it
Routine maintenance, regular inspection, digital reporting and priority scheduling — shaped for private ownership, commercial operations or whole fleets.
The routine, done properly
Every scheduled visit includes
The foundation of every programme is disciplined routine maintenance — and no two visits are identical, because each one is adapted to the aircraft's condition and operating environment on the day.
The wash method is always our call, made at the aircraft: wet or dry, chosen for condition, contamination, site rules and manufacturer guidance. What never changes is the inspection and the report — every visit ends with both.
- Exterior maintenance clean
- Appropriate wet or dry wash — selected by Blue Horizon
- Bug removal
- Leading-edge cleaning
- Exterior glazing
- Wheels and visible landing gear
- Interior refresh where applicable
- Cabin touchpoint clean
- Aircraft condition inspection
- Digital Aircraft Appearance Report
Inspection-led, never automatic
Planned maintenance & optional upgrades
Every aircraft is different. Rather than performing restorative work on a fixed calendar, we inspect during every scheduled visit and recommend additional treatments only where your aircraft genuinely needs them — each one optional, each one quoted separately.
Exterior
- Belly cleaning & degreasing
- Heavy contamination removal
- Exhaust stain removal
- Landing gear detailing
Paint
- Paint enhancement
- Paint correction
- Polymer protection renewal
- Ceramic coating maintenance

Transparencies

- Fine scratch reduction
Interior
- Leather conditioning
- Carpet extraction
- Deep interior detailing
- Stain removal
- Odour treatment
These are recommendations, not defaults — you approve the work and the price before anything beyond routine care happens.
Once a year, in depth
Annual Aircraft Appearance Review
Every Scheduled Care customer receives an annual appearance assessment — a structured, honest review of where the aircraft stands and what the year ahead should hold.
The review covers
- Paint condition
- Protection condition
- Brightwork
- Transparencies
- Interior
- Recommendations
- Optional quotations for restorative work
Evidence, not promises
The Digital Aircraft Appearance Report
Every Scheduled Care visit is documented and delivered digitally — a dated record of exactly how your aircraft is being kept. Owners see the standard being held; buyers, one day, see the proof it always was.
Every report includes
- Before photographs
- After photographs
- Services completed
- Aircraft condition notes
- Areas to monitor
- Recommendations
- Technician
- Date of visit
A presentation record, not an engineering inspection — anything that needs an engineer's eye is flagged to you, never diagnosed by us.
