Totally possible, though I was under the impression that the UAVs used by the military already land autonomously. But I agree that the autonomous flight part is almost certainly the hardest part here.

I am mainly curious if the general physics and economics of the idea are remotely feasible, assuming the software is solvable.

UAVs are under constant supervision... when they say unmanned, they really mean that they're not lugging around the human who is manning them.
