Get to Know Me

Glen York

Owner/Chief Pilot

I’m the founder and Chief Pilot of York Aero, a veteran-owned aerial documentation company based in North Georgia. With a background in aviation and emergency management, I bring a disciplined, safety-first approach to every flight and every client engagement.

My background includes collegiate aviation ground and flight training, professional agricultural drone flight experience, and hands-on work in emergency management environments where precision, situational awareness, and accountability are essential. That foundation directly shapes how York Aero operates today, delivering reliable aerial documentation that supports planning, coordination, and informed decision-making on the ground.

Driven by Purpose

Precision-Driven Aerial Imaging Solutions in Gainesville

York Aero was built to serve organizations that need accurate, dependable aerial data without unnecessary complexity. I specialize in drone-based documentation for construction, infrastructure, and property-related projects, providing clear visuals that help teams stay aligned and informed throughout a project’s lifecycle.

As an FAA Part 107 certified pilot, I prioritize safe operations, regulatory compliance, and consistent results. Every mission is planned with intention, executed professionally, and delivered with the understanding that the data matters.

Results-Driven Aerial Expertise

My approach is straightforward: deliver high-quality aerial imagery that clients can trust. I focus on repeatable workflows, clean deliverables, and communication that makes it easy to integrate aerial documentation into existing processes.

York Aero is not about flashy footage for its own sake. It’s about capturing the right information, at the right time, in a way that supports real-world decisions. Whether documenting construction progress or recording site conditions, the goal is always clarity, accuracy, and reliability.

A Journey to Enhance Aviation

My path to founding York Aero grew from years spent working in aviation and emergency management environments, where timely, accurate information directly impacts outcomes. Through that work, I saw how aerial data could improve safety, coordination, and efficiency across industries.

That realization led me to build York Aero as a focused, purpose-driven operation. Today, I work with builders, project managers, and property professionals who value precision, transparency, and a partner who understands the responsibility that comes with operating from above.
