Born from what Commander Andy (known as The SkyPirate on Instagram) began noticing in the aviation world—a devolving of fundamental flight skills, a shortage of reliable pilot resources, and the slow disappearance of good old-fashioned hangar talk—we created The Wheels Up Club.

This is an online aviation community built for real pilots, real connection, and real growth. Think Oshkosh… but from the comfort of your home or hangar.

Inside, you’ll find a supportive, troll-free space packed with live masterclasses, workshops, flight resources, maintenance tips, warbird insights, safety conversations, behind-the-scenes training, and a forum where aviators at every level can ask questions, share wins, and keep learning.Whether you’re here to sharpen your skills, connect with fellow vintage-aircraft lovers, or simply feel part of something bigger in aviation, The Wheels Up Club is your runway to community, mentorship, and continuous improvement.
