Make this relatively simple... I'm in high school, training for my PPL... Want to become an airline pilot in the future.. What’s the chances of myself going commercial only to find out that engineers are developing 'smarter planes' and that there could be the possibility of a 'computer flown plane' removing the need for pilots.
The reason this triggers a concern is that the newer a/c's that are developed it appears the more work the computers are doing and the role of the pilot may be diminishing.
Can anyone comment on there own thoughts please. Thanks in advance. Greatly Appreciated.
