And if the plane runs out of fuel, the plane can be remotely flown by an outsourced Indian
pilot in a cubical in Bangalore
You mean "can be glided to a landing by said Hadji in cubicle in
Bangalore" : )
Even with triple redundant systems things can still go kerflooey... I
can't imagine a commercial acft ever not having at least one pilot
aboard. Maybe that'll be the next great cost savings for the airlines.
Single pilot with Mr. Roboto for backup... or do I have that backwards?
