@stux The two people onboard shut down the engines and exited the plane and did not require medical attention. The video only says that there "reportedly" was a pressurization issue, not that there was one and the statement is unattributed. This sure strikes me as a potentially orchestrated stunt/market manipulation.

@Infoseepage It's been clarified since it broke a few days ago by the company which owns the plane.The crew says they never lost consciousness and let it activate as a precaution. The computer selected the speech and words to use. https://www.cbsnews.com/colorado/news/plane-emergency-landing-colorado-autoland/I would hope the FAA would read the black box and other data and make a report about it. It doesn't look like an incident is posted yet at the FAA for Dec 20 and the plane left the following day. https://www.asias.faa.gov/apex/f?p=100:93:::NO::: @stux 🔗 Garmin Autoland Activation Was Crew DecisionCharter company clarifies circumstances behind first reported real-world use of emergency landing system.https://avweb.com/aviation-news/garmin-autoland-activation-crew-decision/

@stux Wait… Was the pilot "incapacitated" or not? The end of the story says they shut the engines down by themselves. 🤔
