NASA and Rockwell Collins have teamed up on a research project to determine the feasibility of single-pilot operated commercial airline jets. The project will explore automation advancements that may reduce workload enough for only one pilot to operate the aircraft.
What do you think? Will we see single-pilot operated airliners in our lifetime?
