"Threat" of Autonomy
Hey guys, new to the forum here, i have a quick question that effects any future pilots and is something that i'm sure most of you are aware of, that being autonomous (unmanned) flight and remote drone operations.
My question is about how severe the threat is and what stage the development of both civilian and military use is at as this information is hard to find, the technology however definitely exists.
The reason i am asking is because i have been planning a career as a civilian pilot for over a year now and this came up as the biggest "threat" to those jobs.
Here is a short video posted by Lockheed Martin recently that explains what i mean:
Obviously certain aspects of civilian flight wont change in the near future (correct me if i'm wrong) but things like load transport and monotonous shipment jobs seem to be those most at risk.
Would love to hear what you have to think about the subject, thanks!
