kann es sein dass in dem Text nebenbei die erste erfolgreiche Abwehr einer russischen FixedWing-Drohne durch die Marine erwähnt wird?!

Cannot describe the magic of witnessing sunrise & sunset from above - Truly breathtaking. The return flight after a patient transfer offered a stunning sunset, painting the sky in hues of hope and tranquility. 🌅✈️ #AerialViews #SunsetMagic #iPhonePhoto #InTheAir #photography #airambulance #fixedwing

Depending on what exact sensors are available, it may be difficult to differentiate between something like a Switchblade a different a civilian fixedwing drone at night. Same for FPV drones vs a basic DJI

I have a thread here of 4 posts on #China's #EVTOL vehicle market & some #FixedWIng aircraft from #America. China how now allowed them for civilian ownership and short term trips.
Private #AirTravel has a big future in transportation systems, from delivery to travel.

Dreaming of #FlyingCars in the future?
Well it's now, just not North America. As for most technology adoption, #China has to leap frog as they cannot build roads to handle 1 bln personal cars, so they've invested in massive train systems.
But private air travel is legal now
