WAFP -

One of my former squadronmates just got hired to fly the X-47B for Northrop-Grumman.

X-47B - First Navy Stealth UAV Ready

Looks like he will be spending some time in the Palmdale CA/Edwards AFB area first before moving to Pax river, MD eventually. Starting pay I think was in the $120,000 range. He didn't have any UAV experience prior, but this might be the type of thing that opens up to you even more after your Global Hawk tour should you decide to get out of the AF.
