Air Force Again Shoots Down Proposal to Make Warrant Officer Pilots
NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. — Warrant officers are not going to become the quick-fix solution to ending the Air Force‘s pilot shortage crisis, the head of the service’s personnel center said Monday.
Citing a recent Rand Corp. study, Lt. Gen. Brian Kelly, commander of the Air Force Personnel Center at Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph, Texas, told an audience here during the annual Air Force Association Air, Space and Cyber conference that the service is looking to other programs, such as the simulator-heavy Pilot Training Next program, as the best way to train more pilots faster and more efficiently.
