UPS got approval to use drones
I think it makes sense to use drones for the remote locations, but that is exactly where bubba will shoot them down. Also not sure of the range capability, but I delivered in an area where 10-40 mile roundtrips from a main highway to make 1 delivery were not uncommon. 5-10 miles of the circuit was very common. I don't think UPS was approved to make residential deliveries yet, but did read that they intend to 'fully integrate' the use of drones into their service.
