They transport them by motorbike at the moment, just because they can skip traffic much better.
But yes, quick delivery for organs is great - if this is enough commercial demand to make a drone superhighway worthwile/viable though is another question. Also these drone superhighways drop at a specific point at the end of the highway - so you still need to pick it up from the superhighway 'Skyway hub' and get it to the end customer.
When I looked at the Coventry Skyway project last it looked like it was started by a team who had nearly no experience in aviation or logistics so it did make me a bit sus.
- noir_lord 4y agoSame with blood, when you need it you really need it. There is an awesome (volunteer) organisation in the UK called Blood Bikes[1] that operate all over the UK. The training is pretty intensive, it's something I'm considering doing after I get a full license (and 2 years and advanced) because it's an amazing thing to do.
