The way drones, etc. are going, Pilots will be a thing of the past in about 10 years,

Doesn't a drone still have a "pilot", just not sitting in the cockpit. I doubt they will ever remove pilots (in the cockpit) from commercial passenger airlines, as I doubt many of the passengers would be comfortable with a pilot who doesn't have some skin in the game:

I was reading the paper today and there was an article predicting that a lot of jobs are going to disappear in the next twenty years due to the digital age catching up with them. When I started work in the mid sixties I was an apprentice compositor in the printing industry and that job completely disappeared due to digital publishing. Did you have a job earlier in your life that has effectively disappeared for whatever reason?

There's one about 400 metres up the road, next to the shops, from me and it still works.

I can think of 3 near me off the top of my head. They're slowly being converted to public WiFi hotspots
