Curtain Call for the Aircraft That Helped Eliminate Terrorists
By John Venable
March 10, 2018
March 9 marks the end of an incredible run for one of the most ground-breaking and successful aircraft ever to take to the sky. It is the day when the United States Air Force will fly the last combat sortie for the iconic unmanned aircraft system known as the MQ-1 Predator somewhere in the Middle East.
While I never had the opportunity to fly the Predator during my time in the Air Force, the event does bring back an incredible memory.

From the Predator’s first flight in 1994...
I had forgotten how old the Predator is.
