The sooner these jobs are automated the better. At least a machine won't intentionally damage your property.

So true, i don’t understand why that part can’t be automated.

Soooo how do you get bags out of the belly of the plane? Robots can't do that work. 

And even if they did they would be mind numbingly slow. These planes got fast turn around times to get bags and freight off and to reload. 

With the tech today a 15 min to 30 minute turn around would easily be 2 to 3hrs if not more for a robot a to do it.
