I saw on the news a few days ago that Amazon are currently trialling “deliveries by drone” in the Darlington area. Not sure if this topic has been covered before? What are peoples thoughts?
Colours to the mast…I disike everything Amazon was and is and stands for personally. That said, spent time upgrading the wifi network in an Amazon warehouse recently - gotta pay the bills though right?
I can just see capitalist pressure being applied to the status quo of things (as usual) and before you know it, rules will change and airspace will become a free for all. The CAA (as toothless as they are) will be overpowered and powerless to act. Money will talk. Accidents and injuries will increase ( god forbid) up until they ban hobbyists who control their drones in favour of AI/Automated commercial flying.
You read it here first.
Or am I over exaggerating…?
