Must Watch! F-16 Fighting Falcon Flying Solo. Yes, We Mean Solo!

This is a crazy video to watch. We all know aircraft can fly on their own now but primarily think about that when discussing drones.

Watch this very unique video of an F-16 ‘flying itself’. If you are or were an F-16 pilot or any type of jet fighter this must be intriguing to watch and at the same time sad.

Spooky!

Well, what do you think? Are fighter pilots days numbered? Will the future be pilot-less, remote controlled aircraft in dog fights?

Lets hear your comments below or on the Fighter Sweep Facebook page.
