We used to have a resident freeper who gave us all the technicals on how drones, one day, would be used to bring down an airliner.

His detail was so incredibly rich that I believe the Feds came to speak to him.

This was some years back.

Must have been a Russian drone, and the passengers were all Democrats.

Actually the Boeing passenger jet smashed into the drone.

Drone bombings are going to become a huge issue in the near future. Enjoy your drone hobby while it lasts, they’re going to be illegal and highly restricted within a few years.

[PLMerite]

Bad for the Boeing. Worse for the drone.
