So interesting to see the old take on automation back in the 90's, where the level was new and advanced enough it had them all questioning what's next? We now know SO much more about human factors, and are probably far further away from a flight-crew-less aircraft than they ever thought we would be by now in the 90's. Long story short, the level of autmation has not increased a whole lot at all from those days, the A320 is still a high benchmark for this, and the pilots still find themselves an indespensible part of the flight, can you imagine sully's landing in the hudson without flight crew? Not with todays tech, not just yet at any rate. Another interesting note is the flight crews for the pilot-less jet nasa were testing. That is an area that has advanced a whole lot, and the psycological effects of drone pilots killing people remotely in the US military has opened a whole new can of worms, even on a philosophical level!
