Rick Ellenburg is the Franchise Owner/Operator of Blue Nose Aerial Imaging of Charlotte. As an FAA Part 107 certified UAS pilot and Part 61 certified Private Pilot, he brings a deep, lifelong connection to aviation and a rigorous, safety-first mindset to every mission. Rick and his wife have called the Charlotte area home since 2003, giving him strong familiarity with the region’s business districts and growth corridors.

Rick has more than 30 years of experience in Information Technology in roles including software engineer, architect, team manager, and technology leader. He has led many successful software engineering teams, overseen multiple complex digital transformation initiatives, and managed professional services vendor relationships. Experience that now informs his data-centric, problem solving, business value-driven approach to aerial imaging.

Blue Nose Aerial Imaging of Charlotte utilizes state-of-the-art drone technology, to help businesses across multiple sectors, including real estate, property management, and construction, capture compelling visuals and insights from a bird’s-eye perspective to help project owners and stakeholders make better decisions with accurate, repeatable aerial data collection and processing.

The son of a U.S. Air Force officer, Rick grew up on Air Force bases surrounded by aviation and quickly developed a passion for all things aviation related. He is also an avid photographer with a particular interest in aviation photography, often found at civilian and military airshows. Rick chose Blue Nose Aerial Imaging for its standards-based approach to flight operations and product delivery and looks forward to extending the Blue Nose network into North Carolina, combining his love of aviation and photography with decades of experience managing technical data assets and accurate data processing.
