It's clear tho. Remote pilot is for backup.
- euroderf 3y agoProbably even if there were only a 0.01% chance of interventionable mission failure, a remote backup pilot would still be cost-effective.
- ProllyInfamous 3y agoParticularly considering that pilot salaries are going to massively plummet when one superviser can oversee dozens of planes, simultaneously [perhaps].
- justinclift 3y agoThat'd get interesting if more than one plane has an emergency at the same time.
- ProllyInfamous 3y agoSomewhere there's an airline's actuary calculating the risk, for the sake of shareholder profit. Perhaps a better idea would be to have two pilots, together, monitoring dozens.
- whatever1 3y agoYep no costs for hotels, travel for pilots etc. Plus you can hire dirt cheap pilots from eastern europe
