Tropic Airpower · Redesign v2 · Interactive concepts

Not a website. A hangar ritual.

Previous samples read as competent templates. These two directions bet on signature interaction first — FAA paperwork you open by hand, and an apron where prop shadows are the navigation. Call and email stay obvious; the layout refuses sticky pills, trust bars, card grids, and FAQ accordions.

Direction A

Form 8130 / Integrity Log

The site is an FAA return-to-service packet: cream paper, carbon type, perforation, inspection-green rubber stamps. You don’t scroll a homepage — you open a cover, advance stamped process stages, and sign off with a quote request.

Signature interaction Rubber-stamp cover → click/scroll opens the packet → scroll-snap log spreads → stamp each overhaul stage (or advance chapters). Reduced-motion skips the slam.

Open the packet →

Direction B

Prop Shadow Apron

Full-viewport concrete. Giant SVG propeller shadows are the primary graphic — move the pointer (or scroll) and the blades rotate/shift to reveal content layers underneath. Sky exists only as a thin slit. Cone orange punches CTAs.

Signature interaction Pointer/touch rotates prop shadows → layers peel into view. Scroll advances diagonal sections with huge numerals. Reduced-motion = one striking static frame.

Step onto the apron →
