They predict that 20 years from now aeroplanes will have no pilots onboard in order to save millions of dollars.



It's not that an areoplane can just pull over and stop like a car, if anything goes wrong.
So that's a big no from me.

I wouldn't enter a plane without a pilot because I am the pilot.

Planes already basically fly themselves. Pilots are just there to make sure nothing goes wrong mid-flight, to take over if something goes wrong mid-flight, and for take-offs and landings.

If the statistics indicate robot pilots have fewer accidents then I don't see why not.

What are the odds that a plane steered by a robot getting hit by birds, decide to set the plane down in the hudson river?

That's not true. That was an Airbus maiden voyage loaded with journalists that vent bad when the pilot didn't saw the different between the nose and the wheels compare to the ground.

But... that's why I want a pilot.
