Websites for the businesses that look after aircraft. Built in Calgary, where the Airshine site, brand and service creative were made as one job.

They hire the business that understands their aircraft. An owner with a King Air and an owner with a Cessna 172 both want to see their kind of aircraft, the problem they have and the standard of the work before they send a registration. Most aviation service sites bury that under a runway at sunset. The site has to explain the work the way an owner or an operator thinks about it, then ask for the details that make a quote possible. Answered straight ## What an aviation service website has to do It explains the work one service at a time, shows the finish, and turns interest into a quote request with the details the business needs to answer. For an aircraft detailer that is a page each for ceramic coating, wash and wax, brightwork restoration and window restoration, what each one covers, and a process that follows the aircraft from assessment through preparation and protection to a final inspection. The request form asks for the aircraft type or registration and the service, so the first conversation starts with the job. The proof has to be specific. Airshine’s site leads with the numbers an owner checks first, more than 200 aircraft detailed, over 90 five-star reviews and nine years approved and insured, and shows the finish itself, a polished spinner that reflects the whole hangar, where most sites put a stock jet on a runway. Recent aircraft and owner testimonials sit beside the services, before the quote request. Meridian15 designed and built the Airshine website, its identity and its service creative from Calgary. The same structure, a page per service, proof an owner checks and a form that asks for the aircraft, fits a maintenance shop, a flight school or a charter operator. Every build is quoted to its scope in writing before work starts, and the business owns the site outright. The full case is on the [portfolio](https://fifteenthmeridian.com/portfolio?case=airshine).

Airshine details aircraft at the owner’s hangar across Western Canada.

Scoped as one build. Each one is on the Airshine site and can be checked there. 01 ### A page per service One page for each thing the business does, what it covers, which aircraft it suits and how the work runs. Airshine separates ceramic coating, wash and wax, brightwork restoration and window restoration, so an owner can ask about exactly what their aircraft needs. 02 ### A request that asks for the aircraft Type or registration and the service it needs, and where it is based when you travel to the aircraft. The first reply can be about the job instead of a round of questions, and the business sees the aircraft before it quotes. 03 ### Proof an owner checks The aircraft count, the reviews, the approvals and the insurance, stated plainly and placed next to the request, with photographs of real work instead of stock aircraft. Airshine leads with 200+ aircraft, 90+ five-star reviews and nine years approved and insured. 04 ### A brand that matches the work An identity, stationery and service imagery made to the same standard as the finish. Airshine’s is one wordmark and one small aircraft, and the restraint is the point.

Five mistakes that show up on aviation service sites. Each one makes the owner do the work of figuring out whether you can help. 01 ### Stock aircraft instead of your work A jet on a runway at sunset says nothing about your standard. An owner trusts the photograph of a real aircraft you worked on, in a real hangar, over any render. 02 ### Every service on one page Coating, correction, brightwork and interiors in one list means nobody can find the answer to their question, and a search for any one of them lands on nothing specific. One page per service fixes both. 03 ### A form without the aircraft Name, email and message starts a week of back and forth. Ask for the type or registration, the base and the service, and the first reply can be a real answer. 04 ### Approvals and insurance hidden An owner handing over an aircraft wants to know you are approved and insured before anything else. Put it beside the request, not in the footer. 05 ### Built for a desk Owners and operators read the site on a phone, often in the hangar or on the ramp. A site that only works on a desktop loses the request at the moment the owner is looking at the aircraft. [PS · THE REAL GAP] ## You don’t need another jet on the homepage.

The studio designed and built the website, identity and service creative for Airshine, a mobile aircraft detailer in Western Canada. The site gives each service its own page and ends in a quote request that asks for the aircraft type or registration and the service. **What should an aircraft detailing website include?** A page for each treatment, such as ceramic coating, wash and wax, brightwork restoration and window restoration, a process that follows the aircraft from assessment to final inspection, photographs of real aircraft you have worked on, the reviews, approvals and insurance an owner checks, and a quote form that asks for the aircraft and the service. **Do you build websites for aircraft maintenance shops, flight schools and charter operators?** Yes. Airshine is the live aviation build, and the same structure fits a maintenance shop, a flight school or a charter operator, with a page per service or program, proof the buyer checks and a request form that asks for the details the business needs to answer. The audit maps it to how your business quotes and books. **Can the quote form ask for the aircraft type and registration?** Yes. Airshine’s form asks for the aircraft type or registration and the service required, so the business has context before the first conversation. It can also ask where the aircraft is based and when the work is needed. **Can you design the brand as well as the website?** Yes. Airshine’s identity, stationery and service imagery were made with the site, a wordmark with one small aircraft, a letterhead and card, and a cyanotype of the aircraft for print. The brand and the site are scoped as one job or separately. **How long does an aviation website take?** A simple site launches in 2 to 4 weeks from kickoff, and a full redesign of an existing site ships in 4 to 6 weeks. Larger builds with a brand, booking or bespoke features run 4 to 8 weeks or longer. **What does an aviation website cost?** Every build is quoted to its scope after a short audit, one fixed number in writing before work starts. The number of services, booking, photography and whether a brand is included move it. There is no rate card. **Do you work with aviation businesses outside Alberta?** Yes. The studio is in Calgary and Airshine works across Western Canada, and the site, the copy and the search setup ship anywhere in Canada.
