Non- Officers Allowed to Fly Drones: Air Force Follows Predecessor
The Air Force adopted policy, unveiled on Thursday, has allowed enlisted non- officers to become drone pilots for the first time. The announcement appears to be an alternative measure after the Air Force has apparently failed to allure officers to become drone pilots against annual monetary incentive. The decision is believed to be a similar one that has been adopted by its predecessor. The Army Air Corps., which too allowed enlisted airmen to fly warplanes in WWII.
