Aviation Academy of AmericaReviews of vt-aaa.com

My nephew went here and they closed down and took his money. Having to pay back loan is so ridiculous!! Anyone have any suggestions???

DO NOT go here! Planes are not well maintained (meeting minimum safety standards). They partner with banks promising students incredible aviation opportunity, convincing them to take out massive flight training loans. They then steal students the loan money and never return it if you complete your flight training or request to go to a different school. This happened to several classmates of mine, some losing way more money than I did. Totally unprofessional, owned by a guy in the Middle East who never has any involvement with the school and runs it remotely. Total scam.

Worst school ever. Will push individuals out of planes for foreign group contracts. If you ask for a refund due to the new braunfels school closure they take over 2 months and still have not returned money or emails so you cannot continue your training with another school in the meantime. Planes always broke. They let students break planes and then move them into other planes taking hours from students who don't break planes. Terrible customer service and terrible company. Worst mistake I made was going with this school house. If I could give 0 stars I would.

No A/C in aircraft, not a big deal but bring a change of clothes for after the flight lessons. Instructors are great pilots, flight experience is cool, hangar could use some improvements/upgrades. Overall, nothing negative to say at all!!!! These folks have a passion for aviation, everyone has very welcoming attitude, and it shows. No hesitation at all to recommend this academy to friends, family or anyone interested in aviation.

AAA has great programs that have been fine tuned to transform people into professional pilots.
