V6G,
Your third point is utter garbage. You take a tally of people who are willing to travel on a pilotless aircraft versus those who are not. I conducted a greatly flawed survey down the pub one night - it's simple, nobody will do it. Everything else you've written is a pretty good prediction however!
Kind Regards, A
You mean the same way everyone said no to automated trains 100 years ago? The subways are automated in many countries today. Singapore is one example.
The no to automated trains 100 years ago is probably much stronger than the no to automated planes.
