Re: Remote pilots?
Who would you trust to implement remote piloting in a way that is safe and yet can still be accessed in an emergency? Remember, lots of people will need the key because the remote pilot will have to be relatively close to the airplane in distress, otherwise latency means it's only giving instructions to the auto pilot instead of actually flying.
Any remote control facility is open to abuse. The risk is higher the greater the impact of abuse, the lower the quality of code and the more people need access to the remote control option.
