Like crewless, zero crew. There isn’t even any flight attendants.

Pilots are just an AI Autopilot and flight attendants are all just robots.

    A plane can’t stop flying without hitting the ground

    Totally unrelated to the thread, but this reminded me of Special To Hollywood, a really interesting short radio play from the 40s, about a plane that mysteriously becomes suspended in the air while the passengers and crew freak out trying to comprehend what’s happening. It’s a sort of surrealist horror story that I think was actually pretty ahead of its time.

    Somehow, as a kid I ended up with a collection of cassette tapes of these Lights Out radio shows. They were all pretty basic, Twilight Zone-y stories, but this one always stood out to me. You made me remember that, so I just wanted to share this weird little story.
