This was nothing more than an assisted auto land. I would be impressed if it "hand" flew the landing.

We can teach a real monkey (as opposed to current pilot types) to do these tasks. We can pay them with bananas and they won't threaten to unionize. All you have to do is worry about flinging poo when they get a 45 degree vector off the arrival from center.
