Douglas Barry asks if anyone has a drone. The answer is yes. I have one. My 
grandkids gave one to me as a birthday present assuming that I could fly it. 
It looks so easy. After all I had helicopter training in the Army 60 years 
ago. Yes there were helicopters then. Remember MASH in the Korean War. 
Anyway on my flrst flight outside I got it caught in the top branches of a 
tree while trying to take an aerial view of my house. Flying a drone isn't 
easy. It requires practice, practice, practice, preferably on a treeless 
golf course. Right now the drone sits safely in the box.?
