The Mail is not an authority on UAV's - and never will be!
,,,and besides that , the reporter from the Mail on Sunday is a T**er who cannot accept an answer from a question that he posed, and made some of the stuff up for a nice read on a Sunday morning.... and by the way, CNN were not the first into their cockpit. I saw an article from my local rag (Lincolnshire) that beat the US press by some 6 weeks, as did the BBC.
...anyone know how to get a job there??
