Our Difference

Modern Equipment

Train in brand-new 2025+ Pipistrel Alpha Trainers, not decades-old rentals. Glass cockpit avionics, a fully-coupled autopilot, and a ballistic parachute recovery system mean you’re learning on the same technology you’ll fly after you’re certificated.

Dedicated Instructors

Low student-to-instructor ratios mean you’re not fighting the whole waitlist for a slot. Your instructor becomes a personal mentor who knows your progress, not just whoever’s free that day, and our career instructors bring real-world flying experience to every lesson.

Real Training

We train for the flying you’ll actually do after you’re certificated, not just the checkride. That means real cross-country navigation, real weather decision-making, and real instrument work, so you leave prepared, not just qualified.

I’m working toward my pilots license and because of travel I’ve trained at three flight schools and worked with seven instructors. That range of experience made one thing clear; some instructors are mainly there to build hours or pick up extra income. Austin Aviation is different. The instructors at Austin Aviation are genuinely committed to teaching. They’re invested in your progress, focused on developing real proficiency, and serious about producing capable pilots – not just logging time. Their approach is direct, consistent, and centered on the students success. If you want training from people who take your development as a pilot personally, Austin Aviation is the school I recommend.

I recently took a discovery flight at Austin Aviation in one of their Pipistrel Light Sport Trainers. I had never heard of this aircraft and my curiosity got the better of me. I’ve been flying in a Cessna 172 for several years. I flew with Ben. I was very impressed with this aircraft and the state of art instrumentation. Austin Aviation is very accommodating on scheduling flight lessons and the cost of each lesson is less than nearby competitors. Burnett is a small uncontrolled airport which means spending less time holding short to take off and burning time on the Hobbs meter. Austin Aviation has an experienced and patient staff to meet your flying needs. The flight was fun.
