Automatically Controlled Civilian Airliners Military Technology to Prevent High-jacking
Automatically Controlled Civilian Airliners Beyond 2000 has a interesting article called Predators Turned Prey. It briefly describes how the technology used in military unmaned vehicles could be applied to commercial planes, allowing a more robust protection against high-jacking. It seems a bit radical, as re-inforced cockpits would do the trick just as nicely. Still, in the long run, I can see automatic pilot being much more reliable than humans. Give it 10 years?! | Alex J.
