Let's start with pilot-less freight planes. Plenty business to be found
Really? Aren't 99% of cargo aircraft old clapped out ex passenger aircraft? The cheapest hand me downs. Why would cargo airlines be willing to bankroll the R+D of automated airliner sized aircraft and the infrastructure required to operate it when right now they go for the cheapest option available?
