Erik McCormick is the founder of Aviation Real Estate Specialists, Aviation Home and Hangar, and AirparkMap.com, leading the nation's largest network of certified aviation real estate professionals. A twin‑rated pilot and lifetime aviation advocate, Erik specializes in consulting for the buying, selling, and development of airpark and hangar properties nationwide.

Owner of the 365-acre Wi-Sky Ranch (6AZ2) in Heber, Arizona, Erik lives the aviation lifestyle daily—operating from his private 5,000-foot dirt runway at 6,172 feet elevation in Arizona's high country. As the son of Jack McCormick—founder of the legendary Baja Bush Pilots—Erik grew up immersed in general aviation culture and has dedicated his career to preserving and promoting pilot‑owned property access.

His work spans decades of advocacy for general aviation freedom, airpark development, and property rights legislation impacting private airports across the U.S. and Mexico. Through his companies and media platforms, Erik has built the largest aviation real estate social media network, connecting thousands of pilots, investors, and homeowners through Aviation Real Estate Digital Magazine and Airpark Map, featuring over 700 residential airparks and private runways.

Erik provides hands‑on consulting for luxury hangar homes, residential airparks, and commercial aviation investments. His deep experience in runway easement law, airport zoning, airpark management, and private strip operations helps clients navigate complex acquisition and development projects with precision—backed by real-world experience operating his own aviation ranch property.

Beyond aviation real estate, Erik remains an active pilot, aviation publisher, and community builder committed to expanding opportunities for aviators and property owners nationwide.
