Talking of black Friday/shopping

Has anyone seen these delivery drones that amazon are testing in the US? They will make for congested skies if they're ever licensed.

I haven't actually seen one yet but I have read that they hope to be using them to deliver ordered goods within 30 minutes within five years.

I say good luck with the drone finding our place and good luck with them avoiding accidents in airspace.

I'll keep looking. :y

Ha, trialled in the US first, they'll never get to their destination. The gun totting, redneck NRA mob will be shooting them out of the sky like ducks!

I guess this is really a viral marketing gimmick

I'm sure when they are landing in the Bronx or downtown Detroit that a public spirited US citizen will deliver it to the recipient when it lands. ::) ::) ::) ::) :o :o :o :o :D :D :D :D
