The problem with the terrain following radar was the pilots would over ride it thinking they could react faster than the computer. 700MPH under a 100 feet doesn’t give you much of a margin for error

Yes, I think I remember that the pilot failed a lot more often than the radar. I knew I was uneasy about diverless cars.
