I wouldn't believe it. Unless you are limiting your comparison to the small one you are standing next to in your avatar photo.

Safely controlling a large gas turbine engine on a modern commercial aircraft is far more complex than anything on a modern automobile.

The complexity of the anti-skid brake control system on a modern commercial jet, like, let's say, the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, far exceeds the anti-lock brake controls on a car.

I'm actually referring to the airplanes that I have flown as an airline pilot. But you can believe whatever you want.

I believe you, I think cars have more priority since the everyday consumers drive it, they are not trained pilots, so it needs more protection from dumb decisions...

Really, I'd just like to be a math professor, or some other profession involving mathematics. but, I don't want to stop programming. I see battle bots in my future.
