WOW. This allows me to fly a REAL plane instead of a small toy plane. Where can I buy that software ?
You can bet this will be fixed lickety-split.
Yeah. They better do it. It seems quite risky.
No reason they tell everyone to turn off phones.

Would probably be easier to fly with a videogame controller.
The right way to fly a REAL aircraft via your iPad.

This is a backup pilot, and they make a small box that is ready to take over. It basically flies the plane right to the runway. I would guess you have to operate the brakes and other controls. But still.. How cool!
As luck would have it the iPad battery would probably be low.
"they make a small box that is ready to take over" !!!! that is cool and scary both at the same time.
VP-400's AI will set the plane down at the press of a button. Really slick stuff.

I need a pair of tennis shoes that can do that when I:
* Don't want to get up.
* Don't really want to go grocery shopping.
* ...etc.
