    • If you said KLM, you are correct. The Dutch national airline formed in 1919, taking their first flight in 1920 from London to Amsterdam, carrying two journalists, a letter from the mayor of London to his counterpart in Amsterdam, and a stack of newspapers. All right, would you fly on a plane that flies itself? We've covered the rapid advancements of self-driving cars and taxis and posed questions about how you feel about those. Now we may be one step closer to air travelers having their planes operate without a human pilot at the helm. Our aviation correspondent

    • Pete Muntean shows us a new development in aviation, an automated landing function for small planes built with the goal of saving lives in an emergency. Control freak Pete is like, is this going to be okay? I'm about to go fly in a plane that can land itself. It answers the age-old question, what happens if your pilot can't fly anymore? That's it? That's the button. And it's red, it's very eye-catching. It's red, yes, it's an emergency system. That system is called safe return autoland, meant to save passengers with no flying experience if the pilot becomes incapacitated, which happens on private planes more often than you think. Okay, so just do it?
