Default Upholstery recommendation needed

I need a good upholstery shop to do the seats and interior of my just-signed-off RV-10, preferably in the TX-TN region. Classic Aero won't do -10's, but I'd like that same level of quality. Anybody happy with their interior shop?

thanks,
Bill

I got my seats from Aerosport Products. Geoff should be finishing them next week. I know several others that have got their seats from him. He isn't the least expensive option, but he does great work. Geoff's RV-10 will be as OSH if you want to see some of his work. I don't think Sean Strasburg is going to make OSH this year. He also has seats made by Aerosport

Aerosport is in central Ohio

Another vote for Flightline. Two friends of mine with fairly new RV's (a -8 and a -10) both have Flightline interiors, using Oregon Aero seat cushion cores, and they're the best and most comfy interiors I've enjoyed firsthand.

Someday, I will have the same seats done for my RV-6.

Flightline !! Abby is just a total delight to work with, and the workmanship in her interiors is second to none.

Default Flightline interiors

As others have said call Abbey at Flightline Interiors, you won't be disappointed. She did my leather interior 5 years ago and it looks like new after 560 hrs. Fantastic to work with and she stands behind her work. She was the first to come out with a interior for the RV-10 years before anyone else. Her full interior can be installed yourself in a few hours. There are alot of big decisions to make when building but this isn't one of them.

Default Abby at Flightline

Did anyone mention Abby at Flightline Interiors .

Super nice interiors and will include everything you need. She'll send you all the samples and color charts and you just sit down and pick what you want.

If you can dream it then she can make it for you. Just tell her what's on your mind and let her run with it.

One stop shopping and the best customer service you will get anytime-anywhere.

Love my seats from Geoff at Aerosport Products. If you want very good quality and tight fitting seats you won't go wrong with Geoff.
