I did. We’ll never know. But it is clear that the person who was supposed to be the “safety pilot” was distracted. The point of my post was that even something as “simple” as a self-driving car is a quite some time from being a safe reality. Automated planes have a long long long way to go before the foolhardy can risk their lives to automation and programming.
