the time or point when a plan or operation is executed. it comes from the military to describe when a plane lifts off to start a deployment, at that point an operation is considered hot (officially started). We have to be packed and ready to go by 7:30 so we can be wheels up by 8.

Originally stemmed from military jargon; means to depart from or leave an area or place, particularly via airplane. I'm wheels up tomorrow.
