On a somewhat related note, one thing I've heard of is the idea of planes that don't have windows, but instead use screens to see out. This would mean the pilots wouldn't have to be in the front, etc., though they'd be doing less probably because of all the automation and stuff turned over to the computer. Problem is... computer problems, now you can't see out at all if something happened! That could happen I'm sure, as the article I linked suggests.
Also of course, the more power you give a computer network, the bigger the risk if it gets hacked, of course. Wouldn't a fully-automated traffic control system be an irresistible target for malicious hackers?
