Forget self-driving cars, this plane landed itself

I don't have a pilot's license. None of these obstacles, however, stopped me from landing a small private jet recently at Stewart International Airport in New Windsor, New York. OK, full confession: Actually, the plane landed itself. I merely pressed a single red button on the roof of the main cabin, transforming it into an autonomous aircraft. I was aboard a $2.75-million Cirrus Aircraft Vision Jet, newly outfitted with an aptly named safety system called Safe Return, which is in the final stages of getting approval from the Federal Aviation Administration.
