Test Pilots: Faster, Higher, Farther | STEM in 30

Test pilots push the limits and evaluate experimental aircraft and systems. They learn these skills at United States Naval Test Pilot School. It takes a certain fearlessness to fly and evaluate experimental or newly-modified aircraft. The brave individuals who become test pilots do just that: they fly those aircraft and test new technologies. Test pilots allowed us to break the speed of sound, pioneered blind flying, and pushed us to the edge of space. Each of these advancements have made air travel safer and more efficient.
