Blogging in retrospect here, as the jet lag does its worst, but here's the first helicopter to have been checked in as baggage arriving at San Fransisco.
Both the drone and the box arrived on schedule, despite transit stops at DUB and JFK between LHR and SFO. Missing were the undercarriage skids, bound as a bundle of spars, although that could be forgiven given their matt black finish and the fact that the latter legs of the flight were undertaken in the dead of night.
And even they turned up by courier a day or two later.
Cookin' on gas...
