Military UAV loss statistics are up to 50% in some fleets. There is no way even .01% would be tolerated for commercial operations. There's a very long way to go before this becomes reality. Not before my retirement date and probably not before my kids retirement dates!

And we haven't even talked about the cost of certification!
