That a company called Raytheon test-flew (SIX TIMES) a pilot-less boeing 727?
Interesting, wouldn't you say?

I'm not going to comment on the existence of any such "conspiracy theory". I'll let you decide.

wow, yes it is. Did you also know that the government won't buy devices that blow up rpg's before they hit the tank/Humvee/Bradley vehicle? Israel has them for 300,000-400,000. They are more than 98% accurate. The government turned them down and instead gave the contract to Raytheon. Raytheon officials claim that their product should be ready in 5 years. Wow, thanks Raytheon! That should boost the soldiers morale.

Raytheon and Gruman are the best damned weapons experts in the world. They are always on the forefront of weapons technology development.

It's interesting but I would still rather have a real pilot with that as back up. I also have my worries as to how secure their system is think about the number of hackers we have today, how easy would it be to gain control of the plane.

In point of fact, government organizations have rigged and flown several different types of large aircraft. Old news.
