A cargo plane flew 50 miles with no pilot onboard using a semi-automated system. An aviation expert says the technology could address the pilot shortage.::The flight system allows a plane to be remote operated by a pilot on the ground, which could streamline pilot airline operations in the future.

      Wait are you in support or against AI airplanes? Because mentioning an event where terrorists successfully overpowered human pilots doesn’t seem to be a great argument against AI pilots. More like an argument against human pilots.

        Sorry my comment was confusing and maybe my idea wasn’t that clear either. 911, which was an attack on the United States using airplanes, happed in part, I think, because there wasn’t enough protections. Also I feel that computer systems are much more vulnerable to attacks than physical systems where pilots and other people can protect critical infrastructures. With this in mind, I was trying to hint that automating airplanes this way could lead to more catastrophs.
