The helicopter's exterior was updated and the interior converted into an overnight accommodation.

The cockpit, where the instrument panel remained, was equipped with a pair of rotating seats and a table made from an old fuel tank cap. The cockpit offers a magnificent view.

To keep the helicopter cool in summer and warm in winter, the walls were given extra insulation. The wooden panels were painted white, and the inside resembles a yacht. To make the room bright, the helicopter was given new doors and windows.
