The title pretty much says it all. The drone would be launched
from a modified skeet-launching device, and would include a
bagpipe and
appropriate
hardware for inflating it (well, drones can have a plentitude of
air-moving
propellers already...), and for playing it automatically.
Because
of its size, this drone needs to be launched rather
further
away from the shooter, than a normal skeet. Other than that,
the
goal is the same, to shoot the thing down. For those annoyed by
the
sound of a bagpipe, this should be an especially desirable goal.
An alternative goal might be to shoot the bagpipe bag without
shooting the drone. The "skeets" will cost a lot less, that way,
if the drones can be re-used.
Confusing use of "drone" presumably intentional?

Oh god, he mentioned b******s... |

Kind of like the military airplane towing the target for the gunner to practice on ? |

Since we're now beginning a generation that's going to need to know how to shoot down drones, I guess this may be a good idea. But with the bagpipes a blind shooter could hit the target. |

[+] For target practice. Send 'em up. |

Thinking about it, no one has done much research
into B******s once they go faster than the speed of
sound...or perhaps it's all in Area 52? |
