Government at work.
10 engines tilt wing - very cool. I wonder what they are going to use it for?

Pretty cool seeing an old college buddy on mine, Bill Fredericks, be party of something big. The future of UVAs!
i like how these are such a big deal now... i was flying remote planes in '87.
electrics were still too heavy but now they are freaking awesome.
Drones, et al.
Very interesting, especially from Uncle.
I currently got under contract with a pretty smart surveyor who uses his drone for proprietary mapping via RTK base stations set up. All stays in house. He's got a 4 blade heckiloptor type and is hoping to morph into a fixed wing model soon. His camera is still a project under way.
Goes well with his 3D scanner for other things. Cool stuff on the cutting/bleeding edge of where we all are heading.
