Air Combat Command is looking for a few good pilots with vintage fighters to fly in its Heritage Flight. According to a July 30 release, “The program is open to highly experienced pilots in the air show environment with [US Army Air Forces]/USAF fighter-type warbirds from [World War II], Korea, or Vietnam conflict eras.” ACC has posted an application on its Aerial Events Web page and wants them in by Sept. 30.
A new report from the Government Accountability Office calls for the Pentagon’s Chief Technology Officer to have budget certification authority over the military services’ research and development accounts—a move the services say would add a burdensome and unnecessary layer of bureaucracy.
