[AT] AT Digest, Vol 116, Issue 17

[charlie hill]

I haven't kept up with this thread but will offer this observation.
I talked to a truck driver the other day that drives one of those
trucks that looks like a Moving Van (Airway Movers) but has a reefer
unit on it.  Those guys move sensitive electronics, artwork, etc.
He was here in eastern NC.  I asked him what he was moving.  He said
he had to drop off a "drone helicopter" at MCAS Cherry Point.

I think you're a bit behind on the progress on drones and/or the News...:-)
