Our Story
Minnesota Skycraft was founded with one simple mission — to bring honesty, professionalism, and passion back to aircraft ownership and aviation services.
As lifelong aviators, we know that buying, selling, or managing an aircraft isn’t just a transaction — it’s a personal decision rooted in trust and experience.
Our story began in the heart of Minnesota skies, where flying isn’t just a skill but a way of life. Our founder, Jack Veugeler, is a sales professional, pilot, and licensed FAA Part 107 drone operator who has spent years immersed in both general aviation and the growing world of aerial operations. After working in aviation and seeing first-hand how complicated and impersonal the aircraft marketplace could be, he decided to create something different — a brokerage and management service built on genuine relationships, transparency, and local expertise.
At Minnesota Skycraft, every aircraft we represent tells a story — of adventure, business, or personal passion — and our goal is to ensure that story continues with integrity. Whether you’re looking to sell your aircraft quickly and efficiently, find the perfect plane to purchase, or have a trusted team oversee your aircraft’s care and operations, we approach every project with the same professionalism we bring to the cockpit.
Beyond brokerage and management, we also offer aerial photography and videography using state-of-the-art drone technology. From real estate and promotional footage to breathtaking aviation visuals, our aerial work combines precision flying with a creative eye — capturing the world from a pilot’s perspective.
What sets us apart is our commitment to personal connection. We’re not a large, faceless brokerage. We’re your local aviation partner — people who understand Minnesota’s aviation community, weather, and airfields because we live and fly here.
Every client we serve becomes part of our network — a growing family of aircraft owners, pilots, and aviation enthusiasts who value professionalism, trust, and results.
From the hangar floors of Brainerd to the skies above the North Shore, Minnesota Skycraft is proud to help our clients take flight with confidence.
