Who would fly it anyway if the crew were not in the front end
The same people who flew the 9/11 guided missiles.
I accept the policy of the auto-pilot routeing only being able to be changed by someone with the right PiN - but I thought we were pilots, not computer programmers ? The mind boggles at the thought of errors such as I daily experience on my computer, and it would breed a whole new concept of hijackers, not only would they have to gain access to the flight deck, they would have to be computer 'hackers' too. Don't believe it couldn't happen.
Glad I only have a microlight to worry about, and NO airport security goons to pass. That's a real bonus !
