Meet The Team

Rich Clausen is the pilot and driving force behind Clausen Aviation, offering private charter flights with comfort and convenience in mind. With over 25 years of experience flying corporate aircraft and managing operations, Rich brings a wealth of knowledge and professionalism to every flight.

Born and raised in the Midwest, Rich has always had a passion for aviation. That love of flying led him to a long and successful career in the skies—and now to building a charter flight service where he proudly says he has “the best view from his office.”

Helping bring the vision of Clausen Aviation to life is his wife, Julie Clausen, who plays an essential role in the heart of the business. Julie manages the day-to-day operations, customer care, and all the behind-the-scenes details that keep things running seamlessly. She also enjoys traveling alongside Rich on many flights, sharing in the experience and creating lasting connections with their customers.

And when Julie is on board, there’s an added bonus—Mile High Med Spa services may be available during your trip. From relaxing treatments to skincare touch-ups, it’s a unique way to bring a little extra luxury to your travel experience.
