FAA bans beer-delivery drones

Posted By Jessica Fuller on Tue, Feb 11, 2014 at 12:23 PM

After our recent coverage of drones, a recent article caught our eye: the FAA has banned a Wisconsin brewery from using quadcopters to deliver beer to bored-and-thirsty anglers out in ice fishing shacks. Too bad...who wouldn't like a nice frosty one delivered to a nearby peak while skiing or directly to your tube during a hot summer day on the Deschutes?
