Since focusing his business on airplane repair and restorations
in 2003, Jeff Paulson and his team have completed award-winning
restorations from a Curtiss-Wright CW-1 Junior to a Fairchild 24;
the company’s full restoration of a 1929 Travel Air 4000 won
Grand Champion at the Arlington Fly-In and Sport Convention in
2005.
Based in Scappoose, Oregon, Evergreen Aviation Services and
Restorations rebuilds from partial restorations, such as simple
repairs and modifications, to complete restorations and
re-assembly.
Able to work with fabric, wood, and metal, most project work can
be completed within the company’s facilities. From
fabricating wings, tail surfaces, or fuselages, Evergreen Aviation
Services and Restorations has their own source for old growth Sitka
spruce and aircraft plywood. In addition, the company
specializes in a unique fabric covering system called
“Air-Tech.”
The Air-Tech coating system utilizes the latest in polyurethane
technology, offering exceptional strength while still remaining
flexible. Contrary to the standard doping process, the
substantial color palette available allows an aircraft to be
finished in all matching colors from the fabric to the metal
components.
Currently, Paulson and his crew are restoring a Waco UPF-7, a
1946 J-3 Cub, and a full size replica of the rare 1933 Stinson
Model O. Originally constructed using modified wings, tail,
landing gear and firewall forward of a Reliant, only ten aircraft
were built in the world. Most recently, the Stinson Model O
had its first engine test run for which it passed with flying
colors. Join Aero-TV as Paulson explains what it takes to
transform a passion into a full-time career.
