Drone Controllers:


The female controller is actually flying the aircraft. Her flight instruments screen is located in the upper left of the lower central large monitor screen. The other screens are views from the drone itself.


The control booths or rooms are made in Garland , TEXAS by Raytheon. For non-pilots, these controllers are in Nevada and are each flying a drone thousands of miles away in the combat zone in Iraq and Afghanistan ..


Their left hand is on the throttle controlling the drone's engine. Note all the buttons which perform various tasks without removing the hand from the throttle. The right hand is flying the plane.

Kill a Taliban leader then go home for dinner! Welcome to the new world. This is modern warfare. Today's headline: Missiles fired from Nevada controlled drone aircraft kill Taliban leader. Watch how it's done.
