The flight system allows a plane to be remote operated by a pilot on the ground, which could streamline pilot airline operations in the future.

Our modern economy and world are built on the need for wage stagnation. Unfortunately that only lasts so long and we're reaching the end of it. That is going to come with a massive correction that is going to be pretty painful for the masses because the last thing the rich want to do is not be making as much money. So how they handle it will determine whether they live through it or find out what it's like to be looking at the inside of the basket at the end of a guillotine.
