Virgil invited me, my wife, and my son to meet with him. What impressed me was not that Virgil answered all of our questions and carefully explained everything we were getting into, but that he focused a lot of time on my son, asking him questions and probing his interest and maturity. I came away from our meeting feeling very comfortable placing the life of my son in his hands. My feelings were not misplaced. During my sons instruction, Virgil and his flight instructors were patient, personable, and thorough. Today, my son is college sophomore at LeTourneau University flight program. He is working towards his commercial license, flying on the precision flight team, and has already been hired by an airline. Austin Academy of Aviation played a big part in my sons future.

He, Enrique, has a big love for planes so I wanted to gift him this experience. Jeff was extremely helpful with questions I had regarding this appointment set up and such. He promptly answered my emails and set up an account & appointment. Due to inclement weather, Enrique was unable to make the flight on his actual birthday but after a few emails with Jeff & Mike (his original flight instructor) they managed to move some things around and set him up the following morning with his flight. His new instructor, Xavier was awesome. He answered questions we had and truly gave my love an amazing flight, instruction & experience. The weather was beautiful and it made for an even better flight. I was so happy to hear all that my love learned and experienced before and during his flight. Thank you AAoA for such an awesome flight. We will definitely be back! I want him to get his pilots license.

I started with my instrument and it took 11 months to finish the rest of my ratings! The program is well designed and is structured in a great way for students to achieve success! The instructors here are very genuine, care about your success, and have lots of knowledge and wisdom to pass onto their students. The student community has also been one of the most important aspects of my time here at Coast. Students make groups and study quite often, which has contributed greatly to my success in this fast paced program.

Very bad experience to get an aircraft check out at this place. I just sold my 2022 Cessna 182 and…read morewanted to rent airplane to stay current. I got instructor Tylor who failed to do proper procedures/aircraft briefing and I had to file complaint with the office. The office used it against me despite having all the facts/witness presented to them regarding what happened. I have brought all the problems I encountered with instructor to the office attention , but the office would not look in to the instructor and decided to blame me customer/pilot . . (With over 700 hours total flight time). If you will have a problem with this school don't dare to speak up because you be the blame and it will be used against you :( I did have aircraft check outs done previously and instructors did proper job to make you familiar and comfortable with aircraft , but not at this school. I also asked twice to give me a call to discuss the situation and they would avoid communication and wont give me a chance with another instructor/aircraft either. Also Aircraft Cessna N904CP this school used to do the check out some of the equipment did not work at all, pilot door wont open to get out from the aircraft(HAZARD), Radio on Com2 is a problem and you cannot hear controllers or be able to communicate at all. Aircraft itself was in bad condition and I brought this to the instructor attention, he disregard it and said I failed communication. This review for people to be AWARE of this place.

Dealing with this flight school has been the absolute worst experience of my life. I wanted to…read morelearn to fly, but I now wish I never stepped foot at this place. I began in March 2020 and notified them in July 2021 I was withdrawing from school and need my loan refunded. it's now been close to 18 months and I have received only 2 partial refunds during that time that have still not added up to my total amount. I have a signed contract with the company stating this would all occur within a month. The CEO, who lives in Singapore, lies and lies and lies and lies to me in every email that he's "gracious" enough to reply to. It typically takes anywhere from 3-5 emails for him to reply to one. How any company puts the CEO in charge of refunds is incredible. Please review the Better Business Bureau website, before you choose to do business with these crooks. There are numerous other examples of people waiting extensively on refunds. They have said they will cover all the interest that has accrued on my loan since I notified them almost 18 months ago, but I have my doubts. Better to save your time, and immediately send them a letter from a lawyer.

Parking tickets, paid garage parking if you don't have time to take a bus across town to get to the campus and hike to class. When I was attending, the construction was so bad on the roads I popped a tire on a rock and was stranded for 4 hours. Professors are absolutely terrible. They are condescending and rude. The course work is absolutely ridiculous across majors, a lot of professors don't clearly define projects but then grade you as if they did. Healthcare Administration program professors mock students and spread misinformation, try to make students fearful of their future careers and financial courses are useless to the job, an old man talking about his "knowledge" about healthcare finances. Required reading: the book he wrote. Project management course, I worked on a commercial for the school, professor took off points because she didn't like the commercial and said it wasn't "relevant" to healthcare administration because I didn't include stock images of an administrative job. I had to call professors out regularly for their unethical and insufficient grading. All of this during my two years there, and I had at least two professors openly mock me as if I was dumb. The last straw was them telling me to work 40 hour weeks in residency that I had to secure from their "approved list" with no pay or promise of a job in the end. Changed my major the next week. One professor told me I would be "working at McDonald's" if I changed my major and another mocked a response I had to the lesson in a sarcastic tone both in front of the class. I felt totally embarrassed and absolutely alone, overworked and overwhelmed while attending this school. I wish I could get my money and time back from this university, but in the very least have my degree that I worked so hard for. One psychology History & Theory course in particular held me back from graduating because professor gave over 100 assignments during the semester and took off points because she didn't agree with your opinions, on opinion based assignments. Begged her and asked what I could do to bring my grade up multiple times during the semester and she refused consistently and failed me in the end. Tail end of COVID. $1000 to retake the course. I spent more time trying explain myself to these professors than I ever should have as a college student, it's their job to grade properly and set students up for success, instead they use their position to bully students. They withheld my degree over this one class and the professor has been poorly reviewed for years! Over 120 credit hours earned and thousands of dollars, please send me my diploma!
