".. and no autonomous helicopter took my job. All I can do is hope for next year. "
If you're moving passengers my bet is that your job is safe next year and for several years after that. Ican see the possibility of autonomous passenger airplanes but airplanes are an entirely different kettle of fish as they operate from airports. Airplane control is almost 2 dimensional, whereas a helicopter is flown in all three dimensions and all the controls: pitch, roll, yaw and power, interact in a more pronounced action than an airplane primary controls.
I have no idea why anyone would 5-10 times the price of airplane transport to make the same trip in a helicopter. The economics only operate in favor of a helicopter if one is operating off airport, which demands much higher pilot discretion.
I didn't anticipate autonomous automobiles this early... |

Flying is a strict set of rules and regulations, easily programmed into an algorithm. In an automobile, there are way too many varibles coming at you, unplanned situations to deal with.
Flying is a more sterilized endeavor (def. 2.c)!

lacking in stimulating emotional or intellectual quality : LIFELESS
you have to be smoking crack in large quantities to think anything you wrote about autonomous aviation fits any kind of definition of sterilized. Just own up to the fact you probably often use words incorrectly to try to sound smart. |

I've heard of a sterile environment.
In this case it could be applied.
Maybe you are the microcephalic here in need of more imagination?

you are that pilot that keeps dropping his plastic sporks in the engine bay when leaning over the engines to do a preflight?
Try to not keep those in your shirt pocket there Lardass and maybe cut back on the free rig plate lunches.....

I'm the guy that has to keep signing off the DME you keep writing up 10 times in a month, hoping you figure out on your own the curvature of the earth is your problem and not the DME....
But alas, you are just a microcephalic pilot with peenis envy and no imagination. |

I can see with this "no pilot " system.
Helicopters shake. they shake so bad they chafe their own wires. usually when that starts to happen, the pilot complains of some weird glitch gremlin $#!t going on and sicks the avionics guy on it.
These new birds with no pilot at the helm, well, when the glitch happens no one will know ....
ANd when it finally chafes thru the main bundle....well, it'll just be a lost asset at that point.
I would not put any of my money into that contraption or any one else's money for that matter. |

the wires will chafe through because of all the shiking and nobody will notice and the asset will be lost. lol hard to put a price on that kind of experience. |

who probably flys for the big P.
Every bone head incident I've mentioned thus far (100's) is a real event that actually happened. Because the Big P hires and retains the dumbest pilots in the industry. I've witnessed some real winners in my time let me tell you.
Most would have been let go for the stunts they pulled. But not at the P. There's a shortage and with turnover so high, they can't afford to lose even one brain dead stick wiggler.
Most recent event:
Botched auto. Bye bye tail boom, chop chop. Both instructor and student exit aircraft and are photoed from across the field by the competition, surveying the damage....
Result:
Slap on the wrist, don't do that again, ok.
I would have fired them both for being morons. |

when I worked for PHI offshore, it was a very good operation, especially the MX. A psychotic idiot like you would have a better chance dating Taylor Swift than getting a job at PHI. You're better suited to taking care of those DME write ups. lol |
