Royal Mail will trial the use of drones to deliver health and safety equipment, COVID-19 testing kits and other items to the Isles of Scilly. It will be the first time an out-of-sight autonomous scheduled drone flight has been used between the UK mainland and an island, the company said. Parcels will be flown to the airport in St Mary's by a drone which can carry up to 100kg of mail at a time, which is about the size of a typical delivery round.Amy Richards, a postwoman on the Isles of Scilly, said:"There are some really remote areas on these islands, and this is a terrific way to help us reach them."It's really important for us to do all we can to help all areas of the country stay connected, especially in these difficult times.
If the trial succeeds, Royal Mail said the technology could be used to support postal workers in delivering to remote areas in the UK.
Quick and efficient
Wonder how many poor people on zero hours contracts got shafted so that this could happen.
