The Airbus A320 that was crahed deliberately by the co-pilot: Why do modern commercial aircraft not have anti -collision systens as are being tested in cars?
So if an aircraft is on course to hit a solid object (building/mountain/the ground) then the 'George' system would divert the aircraft automatically away from the solid object. Surely Airbus/Boeing must have thought of this.

Good point Brad
That is why we still have pilots who have over-riding contol of an aircraft.
Would it ever get to the point though where we no longer have pilots? Trouble is if that was the case & a virus was to get into the programme then we are doomed
