Royal Aircraft Services Comes Through for Cape Air with Sherwin-Williams Aerospace Coatings

When its planes require refurbishment and painting, Cape Air calls on Royal Aircraft Services, an FAA-certified repair station located in Hagarstown (MD) Regional Airport. Its skilled mechanics and paint technicians, averaging more than 25 years of experience, in turn, call on Sherwin-Williams to paint Cape Air aircraft.

"At Thrush our vision is to build the safest, most dependable aircraft in the industry, using only the best components and craftsmanship to ensure a lifetime of productivity and value for our customers," explains Eric Rojek, Thrush Aircraft Vice President. "Agricultural aircraft work under some of the most extreme conditions and environments of any aircraft." These are rough duty aircraft, and demand a paint that excels in rough duty. That is why Thrush Aircraft opts for Sherwin-Williams Aerospace Coatings Jet Glo® for all painted parts.
