Drone delivery company Alphabet Wing, has just began operations to homes in the United States for the first time. The drones are gonna be delivering packages from FedEx, Walgreens and Sugar Magnolia.
Their delivery packages are gonna contain things like medications, gifts and snacks. According to alphabet, this is actually their first commercial drone delivery service in the United States.
Wing got the permission from the Federal Aviation Administration or FAA to “allow multiple pilots to oversee multiple unmanned aircraft making commercial delivery simultaneously to the general public.”
Another company which got the approval of the FAA was UPS but they currently attend to hospitals and medical organizations only for now.
Residents of Christianburg can now use the Wing app to make orders from Walgreen and Sugar Magnolia and have a drone do the drop off.(so cool right)
