.The European Aviation Safety Agency, which was behind the original rule change, relaxed the requirements last year to allow individual airlines to evaluate their own safety needs.
BDL said that its airlines had "independently" reviewed the rules and decided that the two-person rule had no safety benefits - and could actually be more dangerous.

It certainly appears to be an intractable problem to me. Gotta have someone on the airplane to control it for reasons of potential jamming/interference/etc. Person on plane must be able to override any external guidance for similar reasons. Can't have one person riding around who can crash the airplane unopposed (remember the old joke about the pilot and the dog...). Therefore two pilots until perhaps onboard AI, and I don't think that's exactly right over the horzion.
I am also no expert.
