You are all in denial. The pilot less/remote controlled airliner is the future.
OMG... Hacking is the least of our problems. What if a programmer deliberately or accidentally writes code that causes every airborne aircraft to promptly descend to 100 feet BGL? The Tesla is a software-enabled vehicle that gets updates overnight like your iPhone or Microsoft products - imagine when the latest bug patch is dowloaded to your Airbus, is in fact, a buggy package? As if some aircraft aren't already a bit buggy and require human intervention to keep them flying straight - iced AoA anyone?
Trust comes from the people in the seats with the best view of the world wanting to go to the same place as everyone else aboard. SLF wants to share in that belief - the Germanwings pilot who got up post this catastrophe and said as much to the entire cabin prior to pushback was selling the punters what they desperately wanted to buy needed to hear.
