No matter what well researched and reasoned argument you put before him Binghi will reply with a baseless fact free load of discredited nonsense or he will completely change the subject and thus avoid answering you at all.

You're wasting your time with him but it may make you feel better when you reflect on the fact that even today there a few people out there that don't believe man has walked on the moon and there are the odd few that believe the earth is flat. It took thousands of years before almost the whole population accepted that the earth is a sphere.


I bet yer one of those who avoids landing charges by using the wrong call sign..

Actually Binghi that's one of the few aviation sins I can put my hand on my heart and say 'Not guilty your Honour'

I have caught myself giving the call sign of the aircraft I fly most frequently when I'm flying the one I fly infrequently. Unfortunately that would work against me as the frequent flyer's landing fees are somewhat higher.

The navigation system will be by 2 means and they must match exactly for the flight to commence. This will have pre programed flights on its hard drive, the passenger then buys the destination flight ticket some form of app to your phone or a USB stick. This will have your GPS track and alt info. So lets say it is a USB - this destination you brought gets matched to the flight on the hard drive of the drone. The flight will then take place on that exact route with no external flight changes unless the emergency is activated - but this will just pause the flight and land.


The second would be the opposite and be more like how Bitcoin works - many computers used to verify the safe flight of all drones all the time, so many that they can not all be hacked fast enough. This would give more freedom of flight paths but be more complicated.


I don't expect there will be private people transport drones - but you may own your own capsule that the drone attaches to.

A smart government would jump on this - renewable energy on the rise!

* Sell the flights to the public as monthly subscriptions (Netflix, Microsoft, NBN - fast or slow).
* Sell capsules to the public. (A new model each year - iPhone).
* Collect data from the public.
* Reduced cost of road maintenance and upgrades.
* Less staff to employ on current public transport.
Considering all the other flying drones that will be operating over a city, from mini surveillance drones up to heavy lift maintenance drones, I'd say there would definatly be a need for a drone to drone to central command communication link.

GPS based geo-fenced highways in the sky.

There's no other way.

There must be some resemblance of order. Watch a star-wars movie or similar sci-fi such as Back to the Future 2 to see the concept in action.

You can't just go from point A to point B, it's just not going to work well..... how a road works on the ground it will work in the air. You'll still have intersections and you'll be computer controlled, but moreso for proximity.


PS. Which is morally worse - using a fake rego to avoid landing fees, or not making radio calls at all to avoid them?
