Time to get rid of the 'flight managment 'puters w/remote.....'

They take control VIA remote systems... The actual A/C controls become
useless... 187 by remote... Do they have " voice recordings of pilots...?"
I never liked 'fly by wire' was always concerned about this...
Just think, som cold hearted SOB sat @ a terminal and did this. Very Sad.

back to wearing the vest; I really hate wearing the damn thing...

So much for travel... So much for aviation... All, for the greed of a few.

Sadly, this feels all too TRUE. [looking down; shaking head]

Very interesting, Tango.

But how do they get control via remote system ? I guess these A/C controls must be designed to have some backdoors hardware (chip)/software so that can be easily controlled remotely.
