Well, we're talking about planes that don't have any human pilots, right?
Exactly, yeah.
But there's a guy or gal on the ground that's controlling it kind of like a joystick.
I remember reading your note, because I was astounded by the number of hours of flight time that you have, 30,000, that's incredible.
Oh, did you?
Wow.
And so what is, what is your concern?
So have you ever run into an emergency situation while you're flying?
And so which one comes to mind that if it was somebody on the ground with a joystick that you're like, there's no way that ever would have survived?
Yeah, no, it's just, you know, I guess my husband's a flight instructor and he's actually started with gliders too, by the way.
And, you know, I'm in a plane probably, I bet you I'm in a plane at least once every two weeks.
And, you know, I've been in where they've lost an engine, you know,
I'll stick to a stinky Uber with the guy who wants to have a conversation.
Yeah, or I'll walk.
Hey, Byron, thanks for coming on the show and giving us your perspective as a pilot.
You know, let me tell you something.
30,000 hours is huge, okay?
A commercial airline probably retires with 20,000 or 25,000 hours.
So, you know, having a gentleman here with that type of expertise really does make a difference.
as far as his opinions go, because he knows what's going on.
