Bespoke interior completions and refurbishment specialist, Farnborough Aircraft Interiors Ltd (FAI), has welcomed Windsor Capital LLP as an investor in the business.

Established for over thirty years, FAI - headed by father and son team, Hugh and Stewart Macrae - has provided a variety of services from full cabin completion and refreshes to military and special operations interiors on fixed and rotary wing aircraft.

Based at Farnborough Airport in the United Kingdom, the team comprises skilled craftsmen with many decades of experience and many hundreds of completions to call on across a range of aircraft as diverse as Airbus, Bell, Bombardier, Embraer, Gulfstream, Leonardo, Textron and Sikorsky.

MD Stewart Macrae commented, “The investment allows FAI to expand its service to larger completion projects in new regions as well as growing our airline and large business jet sector offering, whilst ensuring we continue to deliver the highest standards to our existing clients in our established markets. Key to this is the addition of the skills and experience within Windsor Capital itself supporting our management team with considerable breadth and depth across the aerospace business and our markets, in particular its international experience.”

Dave Edwards, of Windsor Capital added, “We’re delighted to welcome Farnborough Aircraft Interiors Ltd to the Windsor Capital portfolio. We’re not an investment company in the traditional sense, rather we’re taking a fresh approach to the aviation industry based on our successful careers within it.

"Having worked with Hugh and Stewart for almost twenty years we’ve seen the business grow to become one of the key interiors providers to a significant number of manufacturers, maintenance providers and owners. With the breadth and depth of the skills at Windsor Capital, combined with the attention to detail, focus and care that the FAI team provide to our customers, we’re really excited about the future.”
