And since UAVs tend to crash more often than piloted planes.
I know the guys and gals that fly these things are true professionals, but I always have an image of one of them sitting at a computer out at Nellis flying a UAV half a world away. Someone drops into the cubicle and they both walk down to the break room together or whatever. Naw, that couldn't happen, could it?

Works thinks a technique called 3D rapid prototyping, or "3D printing", is the best way to lower costs.
Otherwise known as Stereolithography.

Orville and Wilbur would be more than just a tad surprised at how far their toy has developed.

If it's a secret plane, the NY Times will print it.

hate to burst your bubble but they built this plane back in the early 80s and every time it rained the plane freaked out and shot up the crowd then blew up :-)
