Just for the fun of it. They should make this a standard pilot interview question.

Let's see a show of hands and then ask again in 5 years!

Hi there,
Although most accidents are caused by humans steering the plane...I would not like to sit in a fully computer controlled aircraft.
Because the computers controlling the aircraft are programmed by human beings too...

Hey there,

A real question would be: Would you fly on a plane remotely controlled as in the same process used for UAV?

Imagined the huge change when it will happen .. you can trust me it will..
pilot will go to work to an unmarked building, do their remote flight and go back home. (I'll cry all the tears in my heart when it'll happen ..)
Huge financial change for Airlines and increase in safety.
So would you ?

Amateurs train until they get it right; professionals train until they can't get it wrong
