There are a lot of things I'm amazed at that pilots are able to/have to handle manually.
Recently took a couple VFR flights in a Cessna and even keeping the plane at proper level, and speed, and pointed in the correct direction was a very small part of the task. No doubt that over unknown terrain at night with human cargo would be a daunting task.
In some cases, "close don't count", but this is certainly is not one of them. You guys are the lifeline.
