    Exterior

    Exterior Notes
    N579TX is without a doubt one of the most stunning and beautiful Merlin IIB aircraft in service today (or perhaps ever). The custom paint scheme was expertly laid out by SchemeDesigners and has been diligently touched up each year since it was applied in 2014.

    Interior

    Interior Notes
    The interior is truly breathtaking, and is in fact, a Merlin III interior, making N579TX one of only two Merlin IIB aircraft, ever to boast the upgraded Merlin III style interior. The spacious, forward four place club is complemented by a fifth captain’s chair and two place sofa. The foyer includes ample baggage space, hardwood cabinetry and the flushing potty unit. A layout far more comfortable and roomy than any 90 series King Air.
