Amazon’s Prime Air will deliver packages that weigh 5 pounds or less in less than an hour. According to Supply Chain Dive, the company’s new MK27-2 drone will fly to the customer’s home, descend upon the backyard and hover at a “safe” distance, and then releases the package.
Eligible customers will not be able to order everything Amazon has to offer, but still have thousands of items to chose from.
It’s relatively easy to use existing technology to fly a light payload a short distance that’s within your line of sight, but it’s a very different challenge to build a network that can deliver to customers across large communities.
Amazon wrote in a blog post
Supply Chain Dive wrote, ‘There are also benefits to Amazon delivering to a smaller community like Lockeford — roughly 40 miles south of Sacramento — via drone. Yard space is readily available, providing a spacious drop off point for packages. The efficiency of traditional van delivery, currently challenged by steep gas prices and a competitive labor market, is also limited in communities with low population density.’
Amazon still, however, must wait for regulatory clearance from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to make these deliveries.

UPDATE 6/21: Several days news broke that Amazon selected Lockeford to trial their drone deliveries in, some residents did not take too kindly to the news.
The Independent wrote:
The company approached leaders in San Joaquin County, about 40 miles southeast of Sacramento, about six months ago, The Washington Post reports, but many residents were unaware they could soon have Amazon drones buzzing overhead.
“They’re invading our privacy,” Tim Blighton, a cement contractor, told the Post. He once threatened to shoot down a neighbours drone that flew over his house, and he doesn’t have warm feelings towards Amazon’s drone plans either.
“I’m not an Amazon guy,” he added. “I think they’re going to wreck everything for us.”
Others in the area worry drones could spook livestock.
While some in California have been skeptical of the drone programme, others in Texas have been vocally supportive. The city of College Station, home to Texas A&M University, will vote on allowing drone delivery from Amazon in July.
“Once this gets going we’re going to be one of two and a handful … that are going to develop this drone technology for the rest of the United States for Amazon,” university chancellor John sharp told KXXV.

The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labour.
As the door turneth upon his hinges, so doth the slothful upon his bed.
Proverbs 21:25, 26:14
These initiative are further fulfilling the goals of the World Economic Forum’s vision for 2030: “You’ll own nothing and be happy.”
Once in awhile, I will choose to cook for myself. It is easy – the necessary kitchen equipment is delivered at my door within minutes. Since transport became free, we stopped having all those things stuffed into our home. Why keep a pasta-maker and a crepe cooker crammed into our cupboards? We can just order them when we need them.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).
