" Who will be responsible ?"
Surely " whosoever allowed this means of transport to operate without the ultimate ability to stop what it is doing."
Think of the "Dead-man's hand" or a car's hand brakes. Supertankers require a few miles to stop, they say. (An aeroplane can go into a Holding Pattern, for a limited period but has to keep flying.)
" Robert E. Lee " a C54 flew from Stephenville (west of Gander) to Brize Norton fully automatically in September 1947, but with a full crew on board (observing). I believe that the movements on the ground required to use HUMANS !
