You mean like
... or don't hold a A330 in a stall until it hits the water?
I'm actually struggling to think of an accident recently where a computer wouldn't have been better.
Actually it was the computer, not the pilot trimming the aircraft full nose up... No pilot ever did this before.
A computer alone would not have caused this accident
A pilot alone would not have caused this accident
It required some misunderstanding on both sides to cause it.
Which probably is part of the issue. A mix of both is not the best solution, however there are still situations where pilots alone have already demonstrated to be able to handle it, while computers have not. So computer alone is no option
yet.
Look at the accident statistics of pilotless aviation systems, they are by far inferior (currently). The question however was, can automated systems
one day deal with any event. In the future if will be mainly the question, how much am I willing to pay for computers and which failure rate will I accept.
