Well everyone probably knows that Amazon was the first company to be authorized to fly commercial drones, but what you don't know is that they are flying two B-767's and within the next two years are planning to be the world's' largest overnight parcel delivery service. Yes that includes FedEx and UPS. I know this to be a FACT not a rumor. I work for them .

No they are not drones. We have already done space flight, last April, and are in competition with Space X for flights to the ISS. Check out Blue Origin on YouTube. We have been training our own current employees for CDL for the ground logistics. You'll see, we're a different kind of company. I will provide more information as I receive it.

Press Release ? FAA Approves First Commercial UAS Flights over Land
While I welcome competition as it is good for the economy, flying 767s remotely or by autonomously will be extremely risky. The Department of Defense who has more drones/UAVs than any other operator by far has crashed an extremely high percentage of those machines. Removing the pilot from the cockpit and placing them on the ground introduces incredible infrastructure challenges and risk and isn't a reality in today's airspace and airports. Removing the pilot and have them fly autonomously, impossible today.
Your CEO is wasting money venturing in areas which isn't the company's forte. This has proved disastrous to many companies throughout history. I wish ya'll the best of luck.
