Danny,

Fuddy Duddy ? I think not. Like you, I respect the new trade and also suggest that as they have the ability to kill, they must be afforded the respect of that status. I also believe that thanks to the likes of "The Daily Mail" and its energetic headlines, there may be a conception that our drone pilots are as "gung ho" as it seems some American operators have been. I doubt our chaps are that easily mislead, and, I like to think they are upholding the integrity of our service traditions.
