+DoctorQuest 125 Posted February 19, 2008 Yeah, OK, but think about it. I have years of experience flying aircraft via a monitor screen. I would be a GREAT predator pilot. Good toon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atreides 144 Posted February 19, 2008 I'm sure "REAL" combat aircraft pilot's despise UCAV's. I hate UCAV's as an aircraft enthusiast, real plane's have pilots in the pit. Period. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Viggen 644 Posted February 19, 2008 (edited) I'm sure "REAL" combat aircraft pilot's despise UCAV's. I hate UCAV's as an aircraft enthusiast, real plane's have pilots in the pit. Period. Same here. I hate UCAVs enough that they make me think nicely of the Super Hornet. Edited February 19, 2008 by JA 37 Viggen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Atreides 144 Posted February 20, 2008 I'm forced to agree, landing is hard enough at time's but landing on a pitching carrier deck at night for e.g is something else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
column5 63 Posted February 20, 2008 Same here. I hate UCAVs enough that they make me think nicely of the Super Hornet. I don't hate anything so much that it would make me think nicely of Supa Hoenets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Dave 2,322 Posted February 20, 2008 and they use tailhooks..... And land on bomb magnets.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 451 Posted February 20, 2008 From what I've heard the problem has been that piloting UAVs has been a career dead-end. It doesn't impress the higher-ups when it comes to advancement, so you might as well have been peeling corn the whole time of your stationing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sparkomatic 7 Posted February 21, 2008 the only thing that impresses the "higher ups" in the post-Modern USAF is themselves...they have vehemently demonstrated that they, the GO-class (can I call them Barons or members of the royalty?), do not have any concern for the plebes/vulgate/heathens/unwashed/non-weapon-school-grads aint hatin' just livin' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
