RealClean Aircraft Joins Franchise FastLane Portfolio

The franchise industry's first-to-market, aviation-exclusive detailing business 

OMAHA, Neb., March 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- A true industry disruptor, RealClean Aircraft is a first-to-market, aviation-exclusive franchise opportunity that specializes in the cleaning and detailing of general and commercial airplanes. RealClean is the brainchild of founder Dustin Zeitler, a commercial pilot who concepted the business 20 years ago. Now joined by co-owner Luke Goucher, the duo made the decision to franchise the concept in 2023 and plan to take their expansion to the next level of success by partnering with Franchise FastLane. 

"We're thoroughly impressed with the concept and the go-to-market strategy we've devised for RealClean Aircraft," stated Tim Koch, president and COO of Franchise FastLane. "The success this brand has enjoyed, coupled with favorable market conditions and a highly receptive target market, makes RealClean one of our top new franchise prospects heading into the new year. We believe their all-mobile business model and reputation for providing top-flight customer service will resonate with entrepreneurial candidates in an industry that places a premium on building and maintaining strong personal relationships." 

RealClean Aircraft was founded in 2004 as a leading provider of premier top-quality aircraft cleaning and detailing services for both general and commercial aviation aircraft. Vendor consolidation within the industry had left a competition gap and RealClean's client base was highly receptive to seeing the brand proliferate across the U.S. to service markets outside of their home base in Chicago. After conducting their own research and developing the systems, processes, and operational guides necessary to franchise the RealClean Aircraft concept, the brand has teamed up with Franchise FastLane to accelerate sales at the unit level.

Dustin Zeitler, the founder and co-owner of RealClean Aircraft, is excited about the brand's growth potential now that they're working with the industry's No. 1 franchise sales organization.

"After spending a considerable amount of time devising a first-rate territory mapping system across the country, we're highly confident we can award up to 10 or 15 units in our first year together - and provide our new franchisees with everything in the way of training and support necessary to succeed. We were also duly impressed with the level of influential relationships FastLane has with the franchise industry's top consultancies and brokerages. To borrow a commonly used phrase, we believe the sky is the limit."
Co-owner Luke Goucher is equally optimistic about the brand's potential, based on the values RealClean Aircraft holds dear.

"Aviation is an industry that prides itself on the value of establishing and maintaining personal relationships – taking care of the customers and reminding them how special they are. At RealClean Aircraft, we know we're the best at what we do because we've worked extremely hard to get it right. That's why we believe this is the right time and right place to expand the brand into new markets across the U.S."
