Technological Threat (1988 Animation), with a clear nod to the great Tex Avery.

I thought robo planes are already being used. The pilots are just there to make us feel better?
Well I do kinda look at the panel and push a button and the throttles fly forward by themselves and just before hitting the fence at the end of the runway I pull this thingie and up we go. Then I push a couple of other buttons and the plane goes to someplace and then proceeds to slowly drop down and when its about five feet above the runway the throttles come back and I pull this stick thingie and the plane bumps down on the runway. The I drive it to the terminal. Is that what you mean?
