[Design Your Own](https://www.aviatorgear.com/p-9826-design-your-own-briefing-stick-model.aspx) ## Frequent Questions ##### What Materials Are Used to Make Your Briefing Sticks? *** All of our briefing sticks are handcrafted from premium kiln-dried solid mahogany wood, selected for strength, stability, and long-term durability. Each piece is carved entirely by hand, then assembled, painted, and detailed by skilled artisans. This process allows us to create high-detail aircraft briefing sticks that are both functional military aviation briefing tools and professional display pieces. ##### What Types of Aircraft Can Be Made as Briefing Sticks? *** We can create custom aircraft briefing sticks for squadrons representing virtually any aircraft type, variant, or platform from any country. From modern jets to legacy aircraft, every briefing stick is made to order and built to your exact specifications. These custom briefing sticks are designed to reflect the aircraft pilots actually fly, making them ideal pilot briefing tools and squadron presentation items. ##### Do You Offer Handcrafted Jet Briefing Sticks on a Rush Timeline? *** Yes. We offer a six-week rush production option for handcrafted jet briefing sticks when timelines are tight. Once production is complete, you will receive post-production digital photos for approval. After approval, the briefing stick is finished with a protective clear lacquer and shipped, typically within one additional week. ##### Where Are Your Aircraft Briefing Sticks Made? *** Our aircraft briefing sticks are produced in our dedicated facility in the Philippines, where each model begins as a solid block of mahogany wood. Because every piece is hand-carved from scratch, we can accommodate a wide range of sizes and scales. This process allows us to deliver military briefing models with consistent quality and fine detail. ##### Can Briefing Sticks Be Personalized for Pilots or Squadrons? *** Absolutely. Personalized briefing sticks for pilots and squadrons are a core part of what we offer. Custom details can include pilot or crew chief names, squadron markings, nose art, tail numbers, and engraved stands. These customizations are commonly used for squadron awards, retirements, change of command ceremonies, and unit recognition. ##### Is There an Approval Process for Custom Briefing Sticks? *** Yes. Once your custom aircraft briefing stick is completed, we send multiple high-resolution post-production photos for your review. This approval step allows you to verify paint markings, ordnance, tail numbers, names, and stand details before shipping. Minor corrections can still be requested at this stage. After final approval, a protective lacquer is applied, and no further changes can be made. ##### Do Your Military Briefing Models Come With a Warranty? *** Yes. Our military briefing models are covered by an extensive warranty. Because we use high-quality materials and professional-grade paints, we guarantee that our briefing sticks will not crack, warp, yellow, or fade over time. If any of these issues occur, we will repair, replace, or refund your order. We also cover damage that may occur during shipping. ##### What Is Your Refund or Satisfaction Guarantee Policy? All of our custom aircraft briefing sticks are backed by a 100% customer satisfaction guarantee. Our goal is to deliver briefing sticks that meet the expectations of pilots, instructors, and military aviation professionals, both as pilot briefing tools and as lasting representations of squadron pride.
