About PilotCircle
Building the premier social network for the aviation community
Our Story
PilotCircle was born from a pilot's desire to get the most out of his plane and connect with the aviation community more effectively. David Dwyer, a private pilot with an instrument rating, wanted a better way to organize trips efficiently, meet fellow pilots, and discover great places to fly.
Started in 2023 by David Dwyer and his son Andrew Dwyer, PilotCircle emerged from David's frustration with the fragmented nature of pilot communities online. He envisioned a dedicated platform where aviators could share recommendations, communicate easily, and coordinate flying adventures together.
What started as David's personal quest to maximize his flying experiences has evolved into a comprehensive platform where pilots from around the world can forge meaningful connections, organize events, and share their love for aviation in a space designed specifically for them.
