Air taxis fly over Jerusalem for 1st time ....Dronery a sub of Cando

The possibilities just keep growing . I don't think we will be living like the Jetsons anytime soon landing at the Opera house on Saturday night for dinner at Bennelong but the possibilities for larger payloads keeps expanding. I can imagine deliveries to offshore ships/rigs/islands/ private vessels etc . Deliveries in industrial areas and especially rural areas/properties. At some point expanding into urban areas but with flight paths restricted to certain times and using specific flight paths like for example maybe over existing railways lines . In other places like Dubai , who are ahead of the rest of the world in smart city/technology are already testing drones as taxis . At some point no doubt this will be adopted in the major cities with traffic congestion and time critical deliveries transporting those larger required payloads between building rooftops for passengers or say as an example hospital to hospital transfers for equipment or even patients/staff etc . So many possibilities . Remote mining logistics ... game changer.

So last week see below

https://www.timesofisrael.com/air-taxis-fly-over-jerusalem-for-1st-time-as-israel-builds-airspace-network-of-drones/

Dronery, a subsidiary of Israeli drone delivery fleet operator Cando, operates demo flights of China’s Ehang two-seater air taxi taking off from Jerusalem’s Hadassah Hospital

Cando caught my attention .

Also another interesting video i saw when searching about larger freight loads . One of the major contributors is AirMap who DroneUp bought at the start of last year .

Another good example , piloted or not will require safe reliable connectivity .
