Lighter note : still flying VFR around ( single pilot, single engine ) and I receive lots of GA aviation mags. One advert in the US caught my eye recently :" Lost your licence ?, become a "virtual co-pilot" etc." the trick is for single OPS operations , up to light twin jets certified for Single pilot ops , incl VLJs , to be able to phone a number 24/7 , where you'll get a pilot that was cerified on type to act as help and co-pilot during times of difficulties,weather, , failures,even emergencies etc...
I wonder how long it will take for an ATM company to propose the same ?:
On the other hand with today's technology ( ADS-B, Download FMS data, and CPDLC ), we could all probably work from home with a good PC and a fast Internet connection.
I should be writing science fictions novels...
