Aircraft restoration is the process of repairing and refurbishing old or damaged aircraft to return them to a condition that is as close to their original state as possible. This can involve a variety of tasks, including structural repairs, repainting, and replacing outdated systems. Restoration can be done for historical aircraft, military planes, or vintage models, often with the goal of preserving aviation history. Restoration projects can be undertaken by individuals, museums, or organizations dedicated to preserving aviation heritage. Skilled professionals, including mechanics, engineers, and painters, work together to ensure that the aircraft meets safety standards while maintaining its historical accuracy.
