Buying UAV time instead of UAVs

The lead story in this months Robotic Trends newsletter (here) is about AAI a company offering UAV time to defense, industry and academia.

I think this is a fantastic way to run a UAV company. I think a big reason that UAVs are not getting the penetration they should, outside of defense, is the technical skill required to use them, fix them, service them and integrate them into other systems. AAI is doing all that for you and providing the data. We'll see if this opens the floodgates.
