(After a visit to the INTA facilities in Rozas, we're presenting the second
part of the article published on June 8th 2016, called 'The Drone
Industry in Galicia')
Since
the taking off of the first aircraft by the end of the XIX century or
beginnings of the XX until now many things have changed. The first
aircrafts used to fly just a few metres from the ground, were
piloted at least by a pilot and they were very little self-sufficient
concerning fuel. Today, the situation is completely different and
the models which are trying to get a place in the world of aviation
are unmanned aircrafts, which can travel long distances and don't
even need any crew on board to be piloted.
In a
recent visit to the INTA installations near Lugo to investigate this
new centre of development that the Xunta de Galicia, together with
private enterprises, has promoted, we became aware that the future of
aviation is probably in the hands of these aircrafts.
