What does 'wheels -up', mean.....

[oily]

Hi all, recently, when reading an account of an 'occurance' in 'Cold War' Germany, a chap from 2RTR referred to himself and his crew being,

'wheels up' in our Ferrets'..... now I would have assumed he'd meant overturned, but this would'nt have fitted/been appropriate, in the the context of the text it appeared in..... any RTR chaps shed any light on this phrase?:???
