RADIO-CONTROLLED PLANE AND CHOPPERS FOR FUN.THE OTHER WAS THE MILITARY, WHICH CARRIED OUT SURVELLANCE MISSIONS WITH UNMANNED AAIRCRAFT LIKE THE GENERAL ATOMIC PREDATOR. THEN CAME 9-11, FOLLOWED BY THE U.S. INVASION OF AFGANISTAN AND IRAQ, AND DRONES RAPIDALYBECAME AN ESDSENTIAL TOOL OF THE U.S. ARMED FORCES. THE PENTAGON ARMED THE PREDATOR AND A LRGER UNMANNED SURVELNCE PLANE, THE REPAPER, WITH MISSILES, SO THAT THEIR OPERATORS-SITTING IN OFFICES IN PLACES LIK NEVADA OR NEW YORK- COULD DISTROY AS WELL AS SPY ON TARGETS THOUSANDS OF MILES AWAY. AIROSPACE FIRMS CHURNED OUT A HOST OF SMALLER DRONES WITH INCREASINGLY CLEVER COMPUTER CHIPS AND KEEN SENSORS-CAMERAS BUT ALSO INSTRUMENTS THA T MEASURE AIRBORNE CHEMICALS, PATHOGENS, RADIOACTIVE MATERALS.
PREDATOR DRONES HELP PATROL BORDERS FOR SMUGGLERS AND ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.DRONES HELP SCIENTIST GATHER VALCANOES DATA IN COSTA RICO AND ARCHOLOGICL SITES IN RUSSSIA AND PERU AND FLOODINGIN NORTH DAKOTA AND MAYBE TO HELP FIND LOST CATTLE, SPRAYING FOOD CROPS.
THE FAA RULES RESTRICT DRONE FLIGHTS BY PRIVATE COMPANIES AND GOVERNMENT AGENCIES BUT NOT INDIVIDUAL HOBBESTS.DRONE FEVER IS CATCHING ON AND AIR SPACE IS LIMITED.AND IS A CONCERN OF THIS INVENTION GETTING OUT OF CONTROL AS THERE IS $$$$$$$$$$BILLIONS TO BE HAD AND INTEREST GROWS FOR ITS USES...ARE THE POLICE IN YOUR AREA NOW SEEKING DRONES AS DRONES GETS TO BE SMALLER AND SMALLER AND SMARTER?
