Property in ghetto part of Washington D.C. should be cheap. One could buy a vacant lot and turn it into a kind of memorial similar to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial (that monument has all the names of Americans who died in the war). But this memorial would contain names of all the civilians killed by drone strikes.-- lepton, Mar 07 2014 Curtis LeMay http://www.historia...s/vietnam/Part5.docP.21, #3 [8th of 7, Mar 07 2014] Better to manufacture sanitary ware for public conveniences to allow patrons to suitably express their opinion of their enemies.-- 8th of 7, Mar 07 2014 Possible locations: private land around Hain's Point, National Arboretum, Aquatic Gardens or River Terrace.-- JesusHChrist, Mar 07 2014 It will take us a long time to catch up to the "collateral damage" done by conventional means to date.

// RC model airplane //
We envisaged something more like a Cessna 172 ... say 150kg for pilot and passenger, strip out seats, panel instruments, radios, nav aids - maybe another 100kg .. that's 250kg for stores, minus the weight of mount points and release mechanism.
FLIR might be heavy, though.-- 8th of 7, Mar 07 2014 Ah yes because "proper" military manufacture all their stores in-house, grow their own food and raise their own funds and breed their own recruits in-house with no support from any aspect of Civilian society.
