Wasn't there a thread talking about single pilot airliners in the hangar section? I know this won't happen that soon but O'Leary is the leader for all airline CEOs....soon as they see it can be done they will jump at this idea next.
Ryanair's O'Leary: The Duke of Discomfort - BusinessWeek
"Really, you only need one pilot," he continues. "Let's take out the second pilot. Let the bloody computer fly it." What happens if the pilot has a heart attack? One member of the cabin crew on all Ryanair flights would be trained to land a plane. "If the pilot has an emergency, he rings the bell, he calls her in," O'Leary says. "She could take over."

Well, this kind of thing ensures the future of individual and fractional ownership as well as chartered aircraft. Some people believe their time, dignity, and safety are worth something. Originally Posted by mmaviator

By the way, who is that on your avatar???
my avatar is my mom's best friends sister in law.....just kidding. I'm not sure but I've been trying to figure out what brand of ball that is or at least that is what I tell my gf.
MOL has a history of having diarrhea of the mouth. His protestations are purely for the purpose of free publicity and controversy. The gnome loves causing a stir and watching people get their knickers in a twist.

Say what you want, but the lad has opened travel throughout Europe to the masses similar to a small carrier in the US... I think it's called Southwest Airlines.
