Drones fly in the port of HamburgListenelement 4
April 20, 2021: The Port of Hamburg is Europe's gateway to the world of exports and therefore a particularly critical infrastructure in Germany. More than 22,000 containers are handled here every day. In order to control the transport flows, Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG (HHLA) relies on innovative technologies. This also includes Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) - colloquially known as drones. In an interview, Matthias Gronstedt, Managing Director of HHLA Sky GmbH, explains where and how the UAS are used.

Are delivery drones ready for practice?Listenelement 1
May 25th, 2021: In the private sector they established themselves a few years ago. So far, drones have not yet really gained a foothold in the industrial and logistics environment. Sure, there are already pilot projects, but the unmanned aerial vehicles are not yet really in use commercially. Maybe that will change soon.

Combined drone supply chain tested
May 14th, 2021: The Isles of Scilly are a group of 140 small islands that are located about 45 kilometers southwest of mainland England in the Atlantic. So far, the Royal Mail has been providing the people on the five inhabited islands with the mail by plane. A combined drone supply chain has now been tested in a pilot project. While a Windracer planar drone with a load capacity of up to 100 kilograms brought the shipments over the sea, distribution to the islands was carried out with smaller Skyports drones in VTOL design.
