What will disappear in the next 25 years ?

[ChicagoBlue]

Simply not true. The risk of software failure is too high. The pilot’s job will change to a more monitoring role plus recovery where necessary.

Talk to you in 25 years?

I can push a button at 200 feet off the ground and not “fly” the aircraft until it needs to turn off the runway AFTER landing RIGHT NOW. That’s the “Pilot Flying” (PF).

Now, the other person is called the “Pilot Monitoring” (PM) already.

Here is a Cessna Caravan…a cargo aircraft…from 2021



And, here is Boeing & Airbus…

Fully autonomous passenger planes are inching closer to takeoff

Autonomous passenger flight is a question of when, not if.

I don’t doubt the technical ability, but no city is going to allow large unmanned aircraft to overfly it.
I certainly will not speak to you in 25 years, when I will be 100.

Why in earth would you go to a site like that! Who would have thought such a thing existed? Perhaps all reason will disappear in 25 yrs and only such sites will exist. It will be like a world with only the tabloids newspapers in.

Been watching a lot of Air Crash Investigations lately (recorded 93 episodes) and I’m surprised at how many crashes have been down to basic errors by pilots. Watched the Kegworth M1 episode last night. one engine on fire and they turned off the good one by mistake

The EU. Nationalism and the distaste of subsidizing others in other countries is already front and center for many.

Common market is, and shall return to, what should have remained, with all countries in the Euro Economic Zone also being required to be NATO member states and required to spend the 2% of GDP on combined defences.

China will be the soft colonial power of most of Africa, while British, French and American colonialism will be almost extinct.

Ukraine will still not be back to the condition it was in 2021!

Putin’s legacy will be one of a failed, autocrat & oligarch led, nation state status and Russia will have succumbed to European strength and be looking westward for its future.

You've put far too much thought into this!

Emphasis on CAN! ;-)

Like many people I get paid for nous and what I can do, not what I actually do every day!

Peoples ability to engage with each other or their surroundings without using technology.
Walked back from the Parkrun earlier and everyone else I passed had their heads buried in their phones & had no idea what was going on around them. Bloody phone slaves!
Call me old fashioned but when I leave the house, I love to use all my senses to take in what's going on around me, acknowledging other human beings, the changing of the seasons and what flora & fauna are in my environment.

I've met your kind before, you're an assassin aren't you. A cold blooded killer.
