We could get rid of those pesky complaining meat sacks too. I never quite understood the fiscal arguements for pilotless passenger aircraft. It's not like a sin

We could get rid of those pesky complaining meat sacks too. I never quite understood the fiscal arguements for pilotless passenger aircraft. It's not like a single seat fighter jet where you can ditch the pressurisation gear, you've got to still keep the cargo alive no matter how much noise that they make.

Furthermore, my understanding is that modern fighter aircraft are generally limited in performance to operational envelope of the human driving it, i.e. most modern fighter airframes are capable of performance that could literally kill a human pilot. Getting rid of the pilot opens up the possibility of gaining significant manoeuvrability.
