"Chiron" the Skymaster

[hharney]

It is just ironic that they choose a Skymaster to conduct this testing. Now we know why we fly these great airplanes.

I want one. Doesn't everyone?? Stressed out over single pilot IFR? Let CHIRON ATOL handle it. Spilled the coffee while taxiing out, heck let Chiron ATOL handle things while you clean up the spill.

Need to take care of the kid in the backseat?? Chiron ATOL can keep things under control until you're back. Had an adult beverage during lunch?? Let Chiron ATOL get you home. Can it drive the car, too??

See, that's exactly what I'm talking about. Now, if these folks could be persuaded to attend the next Skymaster meeting, and bring CHIRON with them it would be way cool
