Once had a Chief Pilot for one of the major EMS operators that prided itself on its four year college degree requirment and all IFR program sales pitch, tell me that he would rather have an autopilot than a co-pilot any time.

I did not understand that logic nor agree with his thinking. Seemed odd...I have a degree so should be able to understand his logic but it did escape me.

Does the addition of another set of eyes....a random thinking brain....and a butt at risk that can sense mortality, beat a blind, deaf, mute electronic robot that has preset thought processes and absolutely no fear of death?
