Abstract

A treatment for an aircraft interior has a plurality of panels for assembly to the interior, including side and center ceiling panels, and sidewall panels. The panels control overhead liquids and water and divert them away from the interior. The panels have features that permit them to flex and slide in relation to each other while still retaining the ability to transmit liquids from the side ceiling panels outwardly to exterior surfaces of the sidewall panels and away from the interior. The center ceiling panel has features that block liquids thereon from moving outwardly toward the side ceiling panels, and features that transmit such liquids rearwardly and away from the aircraft interior.
