Bristol's Drone Street Party

As Bristolians took to the street en masse to make it as difficult as possible for the drone conference to continue on the 2nd April, the news is that the MOD has announced that it is forming a second drone squadron, to be based at RAF Waddington in Lincolnshire. "Pilots" will control the killing machines from the UK rather than as before, from Nevada USA. The 'defence' Secretary Liam Fox says, 'The formation of this new squadron follows our doubling of the Reaper capability to ten aircraft, which represents an investment of £135M. This extra squadron will help  us get the best out of this valuable armed reconnaissance aircraft.'
