This little article tells a pretty compelling story. If drone delivery can work well under the rather extreme demands of Iceland then maybe we should be taking the concept seriously.
Yeah. Just maybe.

Here is a snippet from the piece:
…upcoming drones will be able to handle any type of precipitation with simple modifications — and the wind isn’t as much of a problem as you’d think. It was quite windy when I went to AHA’s headquarters but the drone handled itself easily in the skies. The main concern is the windspeed at the landing sites, if it’s more than 4 m/s it could make the drone trip over during landing.
But despite the current drawbacks, the drone deliveries are already saving the AHA a lot of time and resources — drones actually make more sense to use than cars.
Happy Reading,
