Thankyou, Mr Strike, for the shortened view, the actual report is indeed heavy going!
Again we see USAF big brother at his not-responsible best. Fortunately it wasnt an Italian chair lift this time.

The fact that the operators are referred to as "Pilots" is alarming enough. When I dive my kids toy sub through her bathtub remotely, am I now a sub-mariner? Apparently so!

Dont be assuming these things are just looking at border patrols, either, they are being used to shoot at people in war theatre around the globe, very effectively.

One can only put 2 and 2 together to figure that if a UAV was met in the air by a glider that its natural programming will (if not now, soon enough) have the UAV shoot us out of the sky.

Jump up and down, write letters, complain.

Thanks again, Mr Strike, if I look back on all the scare mongering about the Soviet Union fed to us over the last 40 years, this kind of thing appears alarmingly similar.

Or is it the Terminator movies?

More sleepless nights.
