Flirtey

Drone delivery start-up Flirtey taking on Google, Amazon in race to satisfy safety regulators

It may sound far-fetched but it is closer to reality than you think. And a tiny Australian company called Flirtey claims to be at the front of the flying drone pack.

Flirtey has already made a commercial drone delivery, albeit under strictly controlled conditions.

"I see a not too distant future where seeing a drone delivering a package to you or your neighbour is more common than seeing a postman or Fedex van deliver packages today," Flirtey chief executive officer Matt Sweeny said.
