August 18, 20232 yr From an ops point of view.. No standby /airport reserves needed No hotels required No wake up calls required No crew buses needed No going fatigue at weekends No going sick at weekends No crew rest/bunks needed No crew food needed No FTL table /max fdp/ discretion / min rest No Sims needed lpc/opc/lofts No tre/tri's needed No groundschool or annual line checks. No unions No gendecs No roster swaps or bidding No staff needed in crewing / rostering / training delivery / pilot managers / crew dispatch / hotac The list is endless. It would save airlines millions and millions to get rid of drivers. Edited August 18, 20232 yr by fluffyflops
August 18, 20232 yr Indeed we have to be realistic. There will be no pilots in the sky eventually and if anyone thinks differently they’ll be in for a rude shock. I am so happy that we lived in a time where there were pilots and we had flight simulator. I don’t know if I like where the future is going. It’s inevitable though now.
August 18, 20232 yr I have no problem with the idea. Self driving cars are pretty advanced, although not prefect yet. 25 years ago nobody needed a cell phone now we cant live without them, I9-14900K, Gigabyte B760 Aorus Elite AX, RTX 4080, 32 ram.1 tb nvme M.2 SSD, MSFS 2020 on 2 tb nvme m.2 SSD
August 18, 20232 yr And what sim are they using in the tests? Prepar3d OFC !!!

I mean an aircraft is already a flying computer these days, but instead of an autonomous aircraft you build a multi million dollar robot to flip switches? but i bet the robot can leave his seat, clean the toilet and shag the stewardesses

August 18, 20232 yr This reads like a 1950’s Reader Digest article about the future of aviation in 2000😁. This contraption already belongs to the past. Automation means no cockpit at all. As said upthread, airliners or equivalent cockpits are already highly automated, the pilots mostly monitoring systems. Mostly… but I suppose the aeronautical industry is busy analysing thousands of flight everyday to see when the human pilot added any value, to train the AI to face unusual occurences. Safety ? I am old enough to remember the outcry when cockpit crews went from 4 to 3 to 2. No more flight engineer, no more navigator, next logical step no more pilot. The only thing , please, pretty please, leave us the stewardesses. Robots wouldn’t do.

Stay tuned for a customer satisfaction survey (with a predetermined outcome) that will say that passengers love and prefer robot pilots, despite people voicing absolute loathing for the idea in any venue not run by the airline industry. 🤣🛬 We are all connected.....
