I don't see the travelling public will accept no humans at all up the front
I have no doubt it will happen at some stage mate, but not in twenty years IMO.
Seriously though, you bring lots of negativity to all of these forums.
You have mentioned numerous times you are in a much better life position than most of us average airline drivers with our few qualifications outside, and I believe you.
Best thing for you to do is stop essentially telling us how bleak our future is with robot and COVID threats.
I know you are probably just after a “bite” from people just like me, but I couldn’t let this go after we just tried to tell an up and coming aviator new to PPRUNE that there is hope ahead.
Enjoy flying your King Air 200 in the flight levels (I’m actually envious) and voting for your Premier keeping the borders closed until a vaccine is here, but please give PPRUNE a rest if it’s all about telling us to make a career change because you had to.
