Would you want to fly in one? Especially one using MicroSoft software in the computers??? What happens when it needs to be rebooted?
Thanks but no thanks. I live in a cockpit and have seen some very interesting things happen up there. You need a brain (or two), several thousand hours of experience (10,000+ is better) and a lot of good luck at times. Computer is not going to be able to do that... JoeA |

Note/Edit: I've read that the F-22 and JSF (joint strike fighter) might be the last two military planes with pilots. Hard to believe. |
Definatly the future, and the future is soon.
Unmanned (human cost), cheaper to operate and to transport to "hot spots" ($$ cost). Add stealth tech. and you've got an undetectable killing machine than you can run from an air conditioned trailer. |
