| I saw a great quote here on F-16.net that, while not made in response to UAVs, greatly reflects my opinion of UAV "pilots." Unfortunately I don't have it memorized but it was along the lines of "Its not being behind the controls that makes you a pilot, its the Gs you pull." The term "stick actuator" really applies to those so-called pilots. |

Wish that were the case in the AF. In the AF, it's a great opportunity for a Captain type to very likely never see his weapon system ever again...unless he goes to an airshow.
They say they are making some changes, to where guys who get non-vol'd to Creech can return after a UAV tour, but there's no guarantees right now, except for death and taxes.
With a new CSAF, we shall see... |

| Totally different in the Army. Like I said, we have far more UAVs in service than the AF. We can't get operators out of school fast enough. With Sky Warrior coming up, and more demand for Shadow and Raven...(more and more 11 bang bangs are going to Raven school btw), it's a brave new world. |
