Good for them. Computers have been flying Airbus's for years. When did an Airbus crash without an input from a pilot?

Pilots are the weak link in the system as is evidenced by 30+% of all accidents being attributed to "pilot error."

All the industry needs are ATC and automatics. Plus of course passengers prepared to pay tickets to fly drones.
