Two years ago, Jeff Bezos, the founder, and CEO of retail giant Amazon Inc. announced that the company would soon be introducing Amazon Prime Air - A new 30-minute delivery service using unmanned drones. Timed to coincide with the country's biggest online shopping day - 'Cyber Monday,' the news generated a lot of excitement among consumers. Unfortunately, thanks to the U.S. Federal Aviation Authority (FAA), the service has yet to 'take off!' But Amazon has not given up.

    I herd that unless you could see the drone with human vision then it would be legal but otherwise in the U.S they would be banned

      could the plane thing break down? What would happen? Does it need gas?

        They would make it solar powered. But yes, that is why its illegal, because if it breaks down midair, the people below could get hurt.

          It probably could break but it is designed not to do so. Also, I think it is electric powered.

              That would be a problem.... researchers are still trying to figure out that problem.
