Pilotless Commercial Aircraft

It is true that there were accidents due to human error but lets not forget how many times the system failed and the pilots saved the aircraft and the human lives.

I believe that in the near future there will be aircrafts that will be able to fly without input from a pilot but there will be at least one pilot in the cockpit monitoring and ready to take control if the system fails.
