Eagle Flight Center
Eagle Flight Center (EFC) was a premier Fixed-Base Operator (FBO) and flight training school located at Hillsboro Airport (HIO) in Hillsboro, Oregon.
While contracting across the street at BiiN in 1989, Randal Schwartz watched planes takeoff and land every day, prompting him to walk into Eagle Flight Center to begin flight training under instructor Mark (Flight Instructor).
Operating a fleet of Cessna 172s, Cessna 182s, and Piper Arrows, Eagle was where Randal earned his Private Pilot License, Instrument Rating, Complex Airplane Endorsement, and High-Performance Airplane Endorsement.
Eagle Flight Center later went out of business and sold all of its assets and operations to fellow Hillsboro FBO Aero Air.
