Re:Ask HN: What ever happened to the “coming wave” of delivery drones? on Tuesday July 18, 2023 @12:40AM (#36767864)
Renton Airport, Boeing Field, Seatac, Paine Field Harvey Field, Arlington Field, plus scores of smaller poorly marked airstrips if you check OpenStreetMap. It turns out very few places in the US are sufficiently far away from an "airport" to allow drones to operate. Even out in the boonies.
