^^^^^^ Yes, it could be done. We have the auto pilot that is capable and we have terrain and obstacle data already in most large aircraft. They just arent connected. This is the same issue as the Air Malaysia disappearance when everyone wanted tracking devices on all aircraft. Yes it can be done. But any thing aviation costs huge bucks. Who will pay for it? When you do the math, the risk of these type of events happening is extremely low. And industry will quite successfully argue that is simply isnt worth the cost to design and implement these new gee wizz systems.
