paradimg shifts going on soon.

With the emergence of technologies like UAV, I can already hear gears
stripping. g

One thing is for sure - change will come in ways none of us will reasonably
anticipate. I wouldn't rule out a resurgence of cockpit opportunities for
BOTH the one and two-anchor communities.

It's
great to have one guy totally focused on target acq and weapons support
leaving the pilot to flying form and avoiding the threat.

I just think that their additional utility (given current technology) in
the
air-to-air arena is limited.

I'm sure I'm going to get many responses from this one. Seriously,
folks,
not a troll.

I think the real battle of the decade is going to be how many pilots
will remain in the cockpit. There's going to be some paradimg shifts
going on soon.
