the pilot is sat in a ground station,
and, hopefully in a comfy chair.

Mustering? they may be a useful and fun tool. at least one big pastoral house has / is severely examined their potential use.
they also think that they will do away with the experienced pilot to fly 'em. Ho ho.

I see a lot of headless chooks running around, more headless than the usual less than gifted horsemen that we sometimes have to put up with nowadays I mean.

good luck I say, i think it will be a while coming.
