  • Publication number: 20210024196
    Abstract: An interior panel for an aircraft, an aircraft including an interior panel, and a method for making an interior panel for an aircraft are provided. In one example, the interior panel includes a support substrate that has a substrate surface. A first trim section is coupled to the support substrate. The first trim section has a first exposed surface that extends to a first edge portion. A second trim section is coupled to the support substrate. The second trim section has a second exposed surface that extends to a second edge portion that is disposed adjacent to the first edge portion. The first edge portion is offset from the second edge portion to define a gap. A light source is substantially covered by the first exposed surface and generates light that passes through the gap and illuminates at least a portion of the second exposed surface.
