Was watching a science program on TV I recorded that explored the use of automated vehicles and they featured a person carrying drone built by the Chinese. Because in the air there are no people running in front of your vehicle, no traffic lights or other obstetrical controlling drones automatically is far easier. If there are technical difficulties a control center takes over with a human pilot
Better idea then the automated cars being developed by Google, Apple, Telsa and others? I think so!

Certainly. Aeroplanes have always been design , manufacture, and license than automobiles.Better idea then the automated cars being developed by Google, Apple, Telsa and others? I think so!
Would you trust a computer geek's programming with your life when it came to avoiding power lines, buildings, trees, aircraft and other drones ?
I think there is more of a push towards creating environments where nobody has the need to travel in the first place.
Work from home, shop from home, correspond from home, etc. etc.
The world's future looks like it is to become a very dull environmentalist's utopia.

Yeah, but no.Better idea then the automated cars being developed by Google, Apple, Telsa and others? I think so!

BUt you trust them to program a autonomous car to avoid all the obsticals that are on the roads?I think there is more of a push towards creating environments where nobody has the need to travel in the first place.

Are birds much more of a problem to jet engines rather then aircraft?

No I most definitely don't.I'll never set foot in to an autonomous milk float for as long as I am in control of my own body.
And when they become mainstream on the roads I'll be buying a large pickup and fitting bull-bars to it !
How about the idea of having spare drones flying around waiting for a failure, when you have an outage and start falling a parachute first pops open and then one of these spare drones whizzes in and picks you up whilst still in the air.
Think of the benefits of transport by drone, all that land recovered from roads for use and the lack of pollution and noise.

not sure if serious.... Think of the benefits of transport by drone, all that land recovered from roads for use and the lack of pollution and noise.
the balance of having to energise hundreds of thousands of airborne drone traffic vs the replacement of road noise with overhead noise

Birds?
Flying babies is what he means, surely?:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/Cherubs_Cupids-56a0004f3df78cafda9f8cae.jpg)
