I hope they’re wrong.
I see Garmin introduced "Emergency Autoland" today. Any passenger can push the button or it can take over if it senses the pilot is incapacitated. Game changer for single pilot operators.

The day they go to "one" pilot, I'll stop flying commercial, if not sooner! Soooo tired of being treated as cattle!
MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Heading out on SWA tomorrow. How did you know? LOL
Those Honeywell "executives" all look like they're in their 20's...They haven't been alive long enough to predict anything.
