Could be interesting. Many, many moons ago I flew on an ancient C-47 piloted by the last of the WW2 enlisted rank pilots, an incredibly crusty old Master Gunnery sergeant. The guy looked like Methuselah to my teenage eyes.

Absolutely no reason to restrict aviators to being commissioned rank only.

Thats correct this isnt a new idea, its an old idea thats coming back. Should have never been done away with.

Of course it wont go over big with the ring knockers, they think their crap doesnt smell, but its an idea who's time has come.
