Little Bird: Hybrid UAV/Helo Flies Hands Off Demo
Boeing recently showed off their unmanned/manned MD 530F �Little Bird� demonstrator to a reporter on only its fourth autonomously guided mission. The aircraft guided itself around a mountainous course to the north of Phoenix, demonstrated various turning and climb and descent manoeuvres and returned automatically to Boeing�s plant to make a perfect landing in gusty wind conditions.
