More UAV Squadrons

http://www.strategypage.com/htmw/htairfo/articles/20091107.aspx

The air force is training 220 operator crews (each with a pilot and one or two sensor operators) a year. In two years, this will increase to 400 a year, which will enable the air force to run 50 CAPs (Combat Air Patrol; UAVs in the air over a combat zone) simultaneously. The large number of new crews are needed because the pilots only operate UAVs for three years, before going back to manned aircraft.
