[QUOTE="59 Dano, post: 1451010, member: 23516"] FAA won't approve the technology for pilotless planes because the technology can't handle it. Autoland can't compensate very well for some of the factors that pilots and planes encounter (or at all for others). It can't turn the plane once it's on the runway. Pilots are required to set up and program the system. Autoland works better in some conditions than others. But most importantly pilots need to be able to land airplanes in case there is a problem with the Autoland system or other there are conditions that limit the system's ability to work safely. As for automation in general, yes, FedEx will implement it anywhere and everywhere that it possibly can. As it should. [/QUOTE]
