E-enabled = Internet Explorer. The pilots e-mail the Microsoft headquarters who then translate the erroneous commands and give the correct command to the remote control system. :D "A Robot Playing Trumpet Blows"

Midimonk Posted February 17, 2003 Posted February 17, 2003 That is probably the scariest concept ever thought of,Microsoft should NOT have anything to do with such a critical task. :eek: With amount of security holes running in any M$ product it would literally bring the airline industry "crashing" down. I cannot be bought, and I cannot be threatened. But if you put them both together then I'm your man!"

Chip McDonald Posted February 18, 2003 Posted February 18, 2003 It's unreal people in the air industry are considering pilotless planes. Makes sense for trans oceanic cargo flights; I don't think people realize that most long distance flights are automated from takeoff to landing at this point anyhow. Regardless, you won't see me getting on a plane without a pilot. It's bad enough they're flying transcontinental planes with just 2 engines...

rumpelstiltskin. Posted February 21, 2003 Posted February 21, 2003 so i'm the only one uncomfortable with jokes about fiery inferno plane crashes, especially directly into the convention center? robb. because i like people.
MisterBlue Posted February 21, 2003 Posted February 21, 2003 Yep. Not much humor left in life once you have applied the "political correctness" filter to everything. (BTW, Can I still say "politically correct" or is there a new term for it that doesn't offend some people ... ? ;) ) MisterBlue.
