Go Navy! 

Interesting point that all= the hand signals by the crew on deck that would normally be directed at the= pilot of the aircraft, are in this case actually for a camera being viewed b= y a remote "operator." By the way, what is the correct military term for a p= erson who pilots an aircraft by remote control?

What is so amazing about all this is that th= e enemy cannot detect a plane like this in the first place and, in the unlik= ely event they get lucky at shooting one down, there will be no human loss o= f life or captivity.  As you view the flight deck crew signaling the pl= ane, realize they are simply signaling the on-board   cameras,  who in turn are being manned by staff on the deck and inside th= e command intelligence center ( CIC ) on-board the ship.
