Obviously, old fart has been poorly brief on the use of auto-pilot on planes and ships, if that is what he is referring to.
Auto-pilot on a plane is a set of programming soft ware designed to fly the plane smoothly and the use of GPS navigational aid system to guide the plane to its destination. Pilots, and PC gamers who know how to fly planes on MS Flight Simulator, can tell you that without auto-pilot it is impossible to fly a commercial plane manually, and not to mention land the plane.
Unless Old fart is not talking commecial airlines such as A380, 747 and A320 series then he can fly without auto-pilot on a small plane only. In a small plane only the pilot (usually the owner of the plane) and a few passengers are on board and if trouble to the plane only the few die together.
In commecial planes, from A320 to 747 and A380, if these planes do not use auto-pilot do you know how stressing it is fly them? You need more pilots on the plane to do shift duties on a long haul flight. Auto-pilot is a software programme and perfected by hardware engineers and soft wares developers. These people spent thousands of hours to perfect the system of flying a commercial plane without the need of stressing the pilots. If old fart is whinging his Singapore cannot go on auto-pilot (as yet) and need capable pilots (leaders) to steer the nation (plane) then the cockpit will be full of redundunt pilots like him crowding the cockpit (parliment).
If a commercial plane does not engaged auto-pilot in its flight, many passengers will get motion sickness and the flight will not be pleasant at all. Commercial planes are heavy on the ground and it gets heavier in the air from the pull of gavity. A pilot will not be able to control the plane manually throughout the flight because of the weight of the plane itself plus the forces of the wind that will push or pull the plane downwards or upwards, and sway the plane left, right or centre. As such some form of control system is required to help pilots stable the plane during flight.
Old fart is still on his old school of taught, whinging on his past glory, then to consider using auot-pilot (engineers and developers) for his team.
No wonder Old fart kept whinging his Singapore cannot go on auto-pilot there must be a reason for it. He is flying small plane. Is it because his failed education system did not produce enough good engineers and developers to make Singapore go auto-pilot? All these 50 years he has been stressing his pilots (leaders) and looking at the wrong things.
Since auto-pilot is a software programme designed to control and manage thousands of mechancial and electronic components to function properly at different stages of flying including landing, then base on Old fart assumption that his Singapore (still) cannot go on auto-pilot could be that he does not have his Singapore people on his side and more redundcant pilots (leaders) are needed at the crowded cockpit (parliment) to steer his Singapore.
Think auto-pilot, old fart! Auto-pilot is the way to go! Free your people as they are the thousands of mechancial and electronic components that work together at the same time and/or different stages to fly the plane on auto-pilot possible!
Planes running into a storm
Without auto-pilots (that is thousands of engineers and developers (Singaporeans) that perfected flying) pilots have more diffculty flying in a storm. Only with auto-pilot programme and GPS system, that the plane can sail through the storm without a hitch. Why because, the auto-pilot programme has been perfected to overcome all types of scenarios and problems to tackle any situations in flight. So obviously old fart has been foecasting the worng thing lately and don't know how auto-pilot programme works. Old pilot like him should retire and and not overcrowding the cockpit (parliment).
