Hillsboro Aero Academy - Aviation Training School
At HAA, we're here for our students every step of the way.
Four decades ago, we began with a single aircraft and a vision: to create a community with a shared passion for
aviation, dedicated to the success of each student.
Today that community has grown to include thousands of alumni flying for airlines and helicopter operators
across the globe, and our focus on career readiness is still matched by our founding belief in personal
attention, mentorship, and support.

Airplane Training Campuses
Professional airplane pilot training at two dedicated campuses
Our airplane pilot career training takes place on two campuses in Oregon in the spectacular Pacific Northwest region of the United States. Each has their own unique identity and flight environment, but both offer top-notch facilities for ground and simulator training, experienced flight instructors, and diverse and well-maintained aircraft fleets.
Hillsboro (HIO) Campus
The campus is also only 90 minutes from the beach, which can make for a perfect weekend getaway. With nearby student housing available, you can also connect with other Hillsboro students and become part of the community.
Redmond (RDM) Campus
Located just north of the major outdoor destination of Bend, OR, this campus is the ideal setting for the outdoor enthusiast, from summer hikes in the Cascade peaks to world-class skiing in the winter.
