Scheme Designers Showcases Customer Helicopter Liveries

Craig Barnett, founder and CEO of New Jersey-based Scheme Designers, loves coming to Heli-Expo every year. “This is a great venue for showcasing some of the creative exterior paint, decal and vinyl wrap designs that we create with our customers,” Barnett told AIN.

And Barnett's customers are numerous at this show–he currently touts 11,000 uniquely designed paint schemes flying, all his designs, around the world. From OEM standards to VIP custom creations, he and his skilled graphic artists have worked to embellish aircraft, both fixed and rotary wing, with eye-catching liveries. This year, the company is showcasing designs for several customers’ helicopters, including paint schemes for the Bell 407, 429, 412EP and 212HP and MD 530FF.

“These aircraft cross the spectrum in how they are used, from workhorse fleet machines to luxury VIP transport. But they all share the need for unique protective exteriors,” said Barnett. “We work to make those exteriors something the owners and operators can be proud to fly.”
