Re: Real AI ?

I think the comms relay would have to be via a satellite, as Reapers etc are. I also believe Reapers (or similar) have been flown out of Llanbedr & BAe have flown their 'stealth' model out of Warton. The technology would appear to be in the signal loss safety system to get it to land at a chosen...
