> They're literally fully capable of handling the flight from start to finish. I find this to be a bit of a rosy take on things. Autopilots don't take off (which is why Airbus' ATTOL project was a notable thing when an A350 took off "autonomously" [1]). They don't handle ATC (with the tenuously arguable exception of things like Garmin's Autoland), or handle TCAS on what I'd say is a majority of airliners. Autopilot on planes is still quite "dumb". 1- https://www.airbus.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/2020-01-ai... |
