There are auto-landing systems now.
There was a video of a layman in a pilot seat (in a professional simulator) guided over radio landing plane with just few simple actions.

- eps 2y agoYes, of course. Even in paper ones.
- TypingOutBugs 2y agoThen they’d have lost comms with the ATC which would have been mentioned by now surely? With two pilots incapacitated in a go-around procedure?
- Arn_Thor 2y agoSure but that needs to be set up and configured. I just don’t think there’s enough time in the scenario for ATC to guide a non-pilot to do it. And if they got that guidance, why no flaps and gears? I am quite convinced the pilots themselves had control of the aircraft.
