Autonomous aircraft industry celebrates successful flight without a pilot | Sky News Australia

Technology expert Djuro Sen says a big step forward has been made in the aviation industry by company Xwing which fitted out a Cessna Caravan aircraft with autonomous equipment and successfully flew the small plane without a pilot.

Xwing had the Cessna aircraft independently fly itself around San Francisco just weeks after an Airbus completed its autonomous taxi, take-off and landing project. According to Mr Sen, the major problem for the autonomous aviation industry is ensuring the aircraft can communicate effectively with air traffic control. As a means of transporting cargo, the new autonomous technology could be a "really significant move," he said.

DjuroSen Bit like what the Chines have done. The Kiwis are still puzzled how one of their exports ended up in China

DjuroSen maybe next time put a picture of the Cessna not a Boeing jet.

DjuroSen Yeah the military have been doing that for years. They're called drones
