UAV - Mangel på flygere - USA

The US Air Force needs way more drone pilots

The drone program run by the US Air Force lacks so much manpower that it is at a "breaking point" an official told The Daily Beast.

The website reports that according to an internal memo between top generals, the force has enough drones, but so few pilots that it may not be able to fulfill the growing demand for air patrols. With its efforts aimed at ISIL in Iraq and Syria the Pentagon is pushing back against the pleas of the Air Combat Command, which runs the program, to reduce the number of flights.
