Being on Auto-pilot
BDB called it on the Fitzgerald, the destroyer that was hit, accident. The freighter was on auto-pilot.
I watched a documentary about the huge cruise ships and didn’t know that those behemoth also run on auto-pilot most of the time. I think our jumbos and wide-bodies do the same. Just think of it. These multi-ton things can have no one engaged steering. People get sloppy and then the accident happens.
I wonder how much of our lives will be on auto-pilot in the future. What are your predictions?
Brent, how often was your jet on auto-pilot?
