    UCAVs are the future.

    There is a (now old) aerospace joke that goes like this:

    The passenger aircraft cockpit of the future will have two occupants, a pilot and dog. The pilot's role will be to greet passenegers and make them feel safe. The dog's role will be to make sure that the pilot touches nothing in the cockpit.

    We're almpst there.

    I though that one ran:

    Crew of three, a monkey, a pilot and a dog.

    The monkey is there to fly the plane.
    The pilot is there to feed the monkey its banana.
    The dog is there to bite the pilot if he tries to touch the controls.

    :D
