Another possibility is that a "driver" in the engineering world is a program used to operate a device (think downloading driver software to use a printer). Similarly, the "driver" in aviation instruction allows the pilot to operate their aircraft.

Seen it in some usernames here and heard it thrown around at the Academy a couple times (ex. He's a -60 Driver or a Rhino Driver)Who says "driver"? I don't say it... people in my squadron don't say it... I have heard use of the term "driver", but not in a really long time, and almost exclusively from old F-14 guys.
Have they been rerunning Top Gun on Bravo or something?
We are called "Pilots". It's actually a $5 fine to say "Aircrew" in our (single seat) RR.

Just surmised that it was used in the fleet on the regular. So much for MIDN wisdom.
Pilots? Long ago when people asked my dad if he was a “navy pilot” he said that “pilots guide ships into ports and land on two-mile long runways. I am a naval aviator.”Who says "driver"?

Irony is dead, VP guy.Why Do You Suck At Radios,
An “Eagle driver” gave his life fighting Cubans in Colorado with the WolverinesDriver seems to be more of an AF term. I’ve seen plenty of Viper, Eagle, Raptor, and Panther (tamer) driver patches floating around Nellis.
Like you’ve ever turned down “the ugly one...”There are a lot of pilots calling this NFO "Captain"....
Yes Captain, I'll raise your gear
Yes Captain, I'll raise your flaps
Yes Captain, that was a funny joke
Yes Captain, I'll take the ugly one
Etc....
