UplinkerYou cannot take any aircraft and remove one pilot. Definitely it has to have better redundancies. A350 is moving towards that. Unreliable speed, TCAS, EMER DES is handled automatically. In dual engine flame out auto pilot is available. Something more may be in the offing. I repeat again accidents will happen. On another day with three sitting in front A350 incident in Paris would have resulted in a midair. I said before that all apprehensions are justified but it is happening because humans do not seem to guarantee safety. At worst with unusual problem aircraft will crash. It crashes even now without any problem.
