A plan was in place and operators received permission to fly their UAS to the dogs in an attempt to rescue them. Once the plan was solidified and in place, the dogs disappeared.  The animals were apparently rescued by unknown persons who spray-painted a message “The dogs are fine. - The A-Team”. https://www.npr.org/2021/10/21/1048003713/a-team-dogs-rescue-volcano-lava-la-palma-spain Mesa Airlines and drone delivery Mesa Air group has signed an agreement with Flirtey Eagle drones.  Mesa will be using these aircraft for nearly all delivery types but will start with commercial food and beverage deliveries. So far, Mesa has purchased 4 sUAS for testing, with the option of 500 more.  With the purchase of these drones, Mesa becomes the first US-scheduled airline to launch a commercial drone delivery service.  https://www.aviationtoday.com/2021/10/21/mesa-air-group-first-scheduled-us-airline-launch-commercial-drone-delivery-service/ New MicaSense Camera AgEagle, who we reported on last week is releasing a new MicaSense RedEdge-P sensor This sensor is a multi-spectral and RGB sensor designed for spectral analysis of plants and has a larger spatial resolution than the previous RedEdge. It is interesting to see this release only a week or so after AgEagle announced the purchase of SenseFly. We may soon see MicaSense and ebee aircraft together! https://www.suasnews.com/2021/10/ageagle-unveils-the-micasense-rededge-p-drone-sensor/
