Very cool aren't they. I'm not sure it's the future of plane travel. But quite what uses personal drones will be used for is going to be interesting. You could have one follow the wife. Follow someone else wife! Fetch you drinks, get the paper or a takeaway. It's a brave new world people.

It's likely that they will be used by the military initially. A lot of the R&D in robotics is at least partially funded by DARPA in the US.
