already did, many crashes are caused by human pilots failing to correctly diagnose the automated systems response to faulty instruments.

Once CBTC is fully installed we can have conga lines of similarly sized aircraft on final 500 ft behind each other and do simultaneous takeoffs and landings on same runway

It's just taxiing that's still mostly manual and I don't even know why. Once we find a way to do autostarts safely literally everything will be pretty much automated. For checklists we might see remote ops, but single pilot ops are coming in fast.
