Incidentally, I am a military helicopter pilot as well as an airline pilot and I can tell you the relative workload of flying a low level route and approach to an LS at night (the trial in the video is in daylight for the stby safety Pilots not the aircraft. It makes no difference to the computer!)is vastly more work than flying even an old school airliner from A to B
I don't think many of us would disagree with that, I certainly wouldn't...but that still brings us back to who/what handles any decision making processes involved....
