Chopper

Okay, another question from the daily prompt I have no interest in. – If you could pick any fictional animal to be your lifelong companion, what would it be? Nope, not even going to start thinking about it.

So, I’ll come up with something more suited for myself this morning. – A recent helicopter crash got me thinking. Wouldn’t it be a lot safer for everyone if the news stations want to cover accident scenes or fires or stationary events with drones instead of helicopters?

In the most recent incident 3 people died. The two in the helicopter and one on the ground.

Personally, I’m not thrilled when one is overhead of me. A drone isn’t going to make me comfortable either but if that falls out of the sky on my I’m likely to survive.

Seems like it would be a lot more cost effective also. Just a thought.

I’m fine with police using helicopters and I hear some are also using drones.
