@Aviator1982 - I'm not actually trying to change your opinion - in fact none of my comments were directed at you, I just want to warn others.
But since you addressed a couple of points towards me I guess I'll bite:
Your were able to book flights over the internet? This is most definitely not the case now. The way in which flights are booked changed 3 times in the year I was there - and at no time were students able to book flights themselves as the website implies.
As for the 1:4 instructor to student ratio: my instructor personally told me she had 9 students following the 'departure' of other instructors. This magical ratio that we have heard so much about was certainly not enforced as per AWA 'policy'. If you PM I will happily provide you with more details.
I am not suggesting that AWA should be perfect at everything all the time, but for crying out loud do not put something on your website if you cannot even follow through with it!
