Treated like a commercial robot?
With the increasing pressure for businesses to boost flight safety (or should I say profitability?), the risk of Human Error will become, in my oppinion, ever more pronounced.
For example, the public can no longer pay thanks to the Airlines PIC due to flight crew "physically" blocking the cockpit!
With this in mind, it can spark the debate of our companys treating the pilots more and more like robots (only there to serve one purpose - fly their plane!) and not as true human beings?
Just something to think about....
