No NPC crew, Ship follows me in SLF: Why?

I learned a very expensive lesson last night. Am currently on DW2 at the ice planet canyon-y place. I decided to do some canyon running in my F63 and noticed the ship was following me. I told it to hold position...but then I got 29km and told it to resume following me...when I was struck with "Wait, what? To whom am I giving orders? I don't have any NPC crew?"

So what gives? How is this explained? Auto pilot?

And then the inevitable happened, Beluga nose dived and KB'ed under CPU control as I watched from my SLF...and like that 2,700 ly back at Explorer's Anchorage.

Le sigh...but seriously...how does my ship fly by itself? I guess the same way it dismisses and lands on planets?

See Old Ducks "Half-Baked" thread :p
