Airbus uses drones to speed up aircraft inspections
Aircraft inspections are one of the best things operators can do to ensure safety in flight, but ironically, the chore can be a little unsafe for inspectors themselves. To properly review an aircraft's condition, workers often need to utilize cranes and lifts to closely examine an plane's structure and components. It's mildly risky, slow and laborious process -- but soon, it may not be. Airbus has started testing drone inspections that may speed up the process by over an hour.

Perfect Idea! At least; the ground crew won't create human error incidents such as accidentally falling off from the cranes and anything, and more reliable less time to inspect the aircraft's airworthy condition.
Many people don't realize you don't need GPS for this. It can be done under a roof hangar. It can seek pinholes from lightning strikes, peeling paint, structural damage all sent via the cloud with little or no latency. ROI!! Safety and Rapid Time to Market. If it aint flying', it aint making' $$. Bob Johnson/ Atlanta
