[QUOTE="quad decade guy, post: 4240523, member: 77939"] Two different universes. With all respect, the only similarity is aircraft(not really). Kinda like a kite and an airplane...they both fly. Have you ever looked at a drone? Propellers. And completely autonomous? Ok. Where are they going to get pkgs? And safety? What happens when a 4 yo. reaches out to that drone or a dog takes a bite of those propellers. See? Or how about that drone catching fire and burning down an apt. complex. Every drone will have to have a pilot. They're not going cross country. Pure fantasy. Think critically about all this and compare it to how we run our delivery business. Lastly, look at how huge any airport is. Lot's of acreage, space. In the same way, a drone will have to have a mothership or facility and pilot. And the pkgs have to come from somewhere. Hell, we can't even make an electric vehicle that can barely do local deliveries or provide cng facilities. Really? [/QUOTE]
