Again, UAVs are not the panacea or the be all and end all of mil aviation but not to consider or understand the concepts available with this technology is quite blinkered and if you don't get it why make such uneducated opinion?
As for "real life split second decisions", well think about what that processor is doing in your airbus next time you go transatlantic or when it lands your aircraft at LHR?
"Cut the satellite link" only renders satellite controlled UAVs useless, what about autonomous or as with most, line of sight UAVs.
Ironing is beyond a computer?! but designing/modelling a supersonic aircraft is not? well balanced thought that? why would our best brains apply themselves to ironing your shirt?
Gentleman we have advanced our industry through open thought and employment of the best technology availible and through foresight! that is surely our duty?
Ultimately the flying club will end one day and we will all be sat in chacons staring at a screen. May be not soon but 2035 is feasible, look where this technology has come in 10 years!
I guess you have heard it all before though.
