Title: A sad day for Lakemaid Beer
Post by: Smokin Don on January 30, 2014, 11:06:36 PM
A sad day for Lakemaid Beer and ice fishermen. FAA said it can no longer be delivered, by drone, to ice fishermen on Northern Lakes

Does this mean that all the remote control airplane hobby people can no longer fly their planes?  Or is this just selective enforcement?   ;D  We just need more regulations and we will all live in Utopia  ::)

I wish we had drone delivery here. While we were snowed in this week I got down to my last 12 pack of Coors and was getting pretty nervous. Now I did have a 6 pack of Guiness, a 6 pack of Harp and about 12 Coronas in the beer fridge so I could have held out at least another day. I also had several bottles of wine for the wife and a handle of Tito's Handmade Vodka and some other assorted partial bottles of liquor.

You sound like me Ken! Never too low on beer but then Sandman's carry out is just 3 very short blocks away. If it gets too bad I can pull a sled there if he's open! Don
