On May 14, Merlin, a burgeoning startup based in the United States, introduced its groundbreaking AI-driven flight system, dubbed "Merlin Pilot for Commercial Cargo." This innovative system is tailored specifically for large civil cargo aircraft, offering autonomous control across every stage of flight. By harnessing the power of AI technology, the system not only eradicates the potential for human error, thereby bolstering aviation safety, but also facilitates single-pilot cockpit operations. It transcends the constraints of conventional aviation operation paradigms, paving the way for airlines to transition towards fully autonomous flight capabilities.
