The inclusion of Zeppelins suggests that some of our ideas have altered, ie
airships have become acceptable again...
If may be Frank Herbert's influence but I'm wondering whether anyone has
considered Ornithopters?
Do we see their use? do we see technology being at a level where they're
possible? Certainly the VCR gives a pilot enough control...
Has anyone thought of using ornithopters? If so, in what capacity?
presumably not as gunships (or maybe so) So, experimental prototypes which
are really going to confuse the team's rigger when they try to steal it?
Recon aircraft?
