Drones for rural health logistics - definitely worth checking out considering the challenges of remote and difficult terrain, especially with this snow!

[BBCIainMac @BBCIainMac]

Could drones be used to deliver medical supplies across the Highlands? More on @BBCScotlandNews tonight, on #newsdrive shortly, and on #reportingscotland

[BBC Highlands @BBCHighlands]

Patient: Doctor, doctor, I keep hearing a droning noise.

Doctor: Don't worry, it's just your prescription arriving.
