I am not saying it WAS a UAV. But yes, you can often hear military ATC refer to the UAV as "you" when talking to the ground pilot. And vice versa, the pilot refers to the UAV as "I" or "we".

The Predator is flown from a hybrid mix of cockpit and computer consoles. The attached photo shows aviation historian Peter Merlin at the controls of a Predator simulator at Creech AFB. The pilot typically sits on the left, and the reconnassance officer on the right.
