You just said that all the systems are down. If the systems are down then they don't have any way to control the aircraft.

innaugural flight on the megajet 2000 and thers a 'fzzzzt' and all those lovely systems go down

If the systems are down you don't have control of the aircraft now. How is that any different from the megajet 2000?

I can read it 100 more times and it won't change anything. When the systems go 'fzzzzt' everyone dies now, and they'll die in the megajet 2000.

Ok I just went to the kitchen and explained this to a root vegetable....and it got it.

The megajet has 'no' pilots, you then took us out of the megajet and put us back into a hypothetical jet that does have pilots, therfore not the megajet, the systems I was talking about are the systems the megajet computer relied on to function...its virtual eyes and ears, systems are not controls in this case, a computer that doesn't know where it is isn't going to solve its way out of anything without the super shiny systems you and me designed to help it, a pilot with a window and a yoke and rudders is much better.

If a modern jet loses power everyone is dying. That is as certain in a jet with pilots as it is in the megajet 2000.

I'm pretty sure the APU was still functioning on that aircraft.
