Drone Pilots Burned Out

Acording to Colonel Brad Hoagland United States Airforce...."The thrill of taking off from a runway, flying a mission and then coming back and landing at the end of the mission — that’s very exciting,"as told to NBC news reporters,"But, I think that’s a different type of person who can do that, than someone who is may be wired to fly an unmanned system from a console 7,000 miles away. It’s a different psychological makeup requirement to execute the mission." Sometime working a 12 hour shift and watching death a destruction from a console thousands of miles away, has stressed out even the best of the best.
