Top notch reporting there. :erm:

Is everything "a drone" now? Might some simply be R/C planes?

CNN really doesn't deserve two threads- hence one for two of their "top notch" deals

But from other sources- I do think it was a drone big enough to do some damage

is this some kind of job action by the fa's ? What are the odds that every single fa gets ill yet none of the pilots or passengers. Unless they all went to the same early bird special in venice.

They must have drank some of that Venetian water.
