Preparing the Next Generation Pilots

Preparing the Next Generation Pilots

Military Flight Training finds itself at a very interesting time as new technologies present new opportunities and challenges. Synthetic training, for example, presents an opportunity to train at relatively low cost, but a worry persists that an over reliance on this technology might further reduce flying hours, which are seen as essential. In this interview, Major General Phillip Stewart of the 19th Air Force is asked about the current trends and directions Military Flight Training is taking. He covers:

  • The changes he hopes to bring as head of the 19th Air Force
  • How pilots are being prepared for 5th generation fighters
  • How pilot training is transforming to meet the individual needs
