Qatar airlines proposing one pilot only flights

a reply to: robsmith

A bad move even in the age of almost full automation of aircraft because it only takes one radicalized pilot to commit an atrocity on a plane full of innocent people and also because putting all your eggs in one basket has never been a sensible thing to do but we often do so anyway, fine if it is just eggs but this is people's lives, a flying missile.

Yeah Great Idea . If the Sole Pilot somehow has a Heart Attack in Flight then I am Sure All the Passengers will be Reassured Everything will be All Right in a Recording over the PA System..............................TIME TO LEAVE EARTH............

Though time example as to why 2 pilots are needed as sadly one pilot passed upon takeoff.
