Drone: Health Product Delivery

Views: 442
Zip,
. . . is a small, autonomous aircraft with a cargo bay,
. . . from Zipline, that has been using it to deliver:
. . . . . . Blood,
. . . . . . Vaccines, and
. . . . . . Medicine,
. . . to folks in remote regions of Rwanda,
. . . (a country which is notoriously difficult to travel through by surface.)

Zip,
. . . is fixed-wing drone,
. . . launched like a slingshot, off a ramp.
. . . fly's to a target, circles,
. . . drops its parachute-equipped payload,
. . . then, head's for home.

Time:
. . . 15 minutes total flight time,
. . . VS hours, or days of overland travel.
