TFA mentions that a real pilot was needed for ATC comms and airspaces. As any actual pilot will tell you, actually manipulating controls (what this company claims to simplify) is 2% of the job, at most. In fact, as you learn to fly, at just 10 hours of training you'll be allowed to solo fly (only near the airport and only alone). The hard part is emergency handling, airspaces, comms, weather, and planning. This company does none of that.
