THE DANGERS OF AUTOMATION IN AIRLINERS: Accidents Waiting to Happen
Aviation automation has been pushed to its limits, with pilots increasingly relying on it. Autopilot, autothrottle, autoland, flight management systems, air data systems, and inertial guidance systems. All these systems are only as good as their inputs, which incredibly, can go rogue. Even the automation itself is subject to unpredictable failure. Well illustrated some in color.
