• Abstract:
  As society progresses towards increased automation in aviation—such as with Advanced Air Mobility and Unmanned Aircraft Systems—it is important to have a common understanding and perspective about automation among the many stakeholders, including aviation system designers, operators, maintainers, and regulatory authorities. Unfortunately, the discourse is hindered by misleading perspectives, assumptions, claims, and terminology.
