US military used half a million hours of unmanned aircraft
Interesting story documenting how much pilotless airplanes are being
used in combat. The article says about 500,000 hours have been used so far. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080102/...ned_killers_11 It's interesting to speculate what this might mean for high risk flights in general, like space flight, as well as more rountine flying.
