So what im putting together here is plane manufacturer started implementing a new system with connected high speed network accessible from the ground. They said its for malfunction alerts. To allow them to get a warning in realtime so they can preform maintenance before failure. They hired new CEO's and presidents in February and july of this year. They were upset at the new Tariffs that effected their company.
This new network along with the company's use of Microsoft's new flight simulator. Leads me to think no pilot on board but one connected through the network and patched in over the comms. Sounded to me like he was sitting behind a computer at a desk. there was no energy in his voice. Seemed way to calm like he just smoked a joint and was just noticing some beatiful scenery. I would think anyone would have some noticable panic or stress in there voice after seeing a pair of F16 flying next to you.
