Here - imagine trying to fly a drone in this image:

Innovative idea, but Dubai is working with clear skies and a relatively uniform color setting. Dark colored objects have lots of thermal uprisings (it sucks flying a small plane in the summer over a mix of forest and fields). Deserts are brown.

The thermal well of a major fire is really quite scary if you ever get to see one on the lines. I’m not interested in seeing one up close again.

well, those pictures certainly brought my drone back down to earth with a thud. On to the next brilliant idea....
