Flying

Check out this cool video from the cockpit of the first A-380 landing at San Francisco International Airport.  The A-380 is the monster airliner built by Airbus that carries around 800 people.  Not like any flying I've ever seen.  Lots of knob turning and gazing at the view.  No one thinks that UAVs could carry people, but not sure there's much difference.  The computer is flying the plane.  These guys in the cockpit just turn a few knobs and they don't need to be there to do that...
