The team at Sky Limo Air Charter found an interesting article online reporting about a new cutting-edge technology in the aviation industry. Here’s what we found: According to Kansas.com, aerospace company Rockwell Collins recently unveiled what it calls a ‘digital parachute’, a sort-of panic button technology that will land any plane at the closest airport, no matter what the weather or location, an most impressibly, without a pilot. The article continues to say that this technology was first developed for unmanned aircrafts in the military but could be used in countless situations where pilots aren’t capable of flying a plane, like an emergency. Allegedly, this auto-landing technology was recently used to successfully land Hawker Beechcraft and Cessna Aircraft airplanes. According to the article, the next step is to install the equipment on business jets and later commercial airlines. The senior director of control technologies at Rockwell Collins says he expects to market this in the next five years. The article continues to explain that the company behind this is not looking to replace pilots, just to improve safety and capability.
