Operation of any aircraft inevitably requires communication and integration into the existing air traffic infrastructure. Without a communication and control being provided for, it is impossible to integrate them. This cannot occur overnight. As I've said a number of times (and mainly ignored by Tourist, probably put in the too difficult to answer file) - physically making an autonomous aircraft is only the first part of the equation.
