You persist in characterising this as ridiculous.
Airlander, you may be right. Maybe it will never work, who knows. It has none of the serious money backing behind it.
The drone delivery thing is different. Amazon and others are doing it. It is going to be a reality in the near future.
They have comedically limitless funds and very very clever people by the busload.
They also have something that people want, and something that has potentially huge disruptive effects on commerce and travel. If 90% of delivery trucks were removed from roads, the effect would be brilliant. (not so good for the drivers) If you can get things delivered in 30mins from purchase, again society will experience major changes.
Why do you question weather?! Why should weather have any effect whatsoever? There are drones that kids can buy now that are totally submergible. You can throw them in rivers. They have extremely strong control authority.
Are you not slightly worried that you are going to look silly when this very obviously happening technology starts delivering to your street? Will you come on here and admit you were wrong?
