The Campus operates at a former military base now known as the Pinal Airpark just north of Tucson, Arizona. This facility has a long and colorful history dating back to its construction in 1942.

​

The base was first used under the command of the 389th Army Air Force and used as a training facility in support of the 50,000 Pilot Training Program. It was then used throughout the 1950's as a training center for the United States Air Force.

​

In the 1960's and 70's the base became the headquarters of all Central Intelligence Agency air operations throughout the Vietnam War years, when it was the primary facility of Intermountain Airlines, a wholly owned CIA "front" company which was used to supply covert operations in Southeast Asia & elsewhere. Intermountain was infamous for its thinly veiled CIA special ops which included development & use of the Fulton Skyhook, but its cover was its non-scheduled freight & maintenance operations. The base was the principal continental United States maintenance base for Southeast Asia CIA operations including Air America and Continental Air Services.

​

From the 1980's to until present day the base has been used by various military units, state and federal government agencies and private contractors as a center for a variety of different types of training.
