Just an idea to be discarded. Maybe you could do a piece about how the military is really the most effective aid relief organization. Not that I want them doing this but there are aspects of it they could train the trainer as they say to make the govt. & aid organizations more efficient. Sorry, some of that post illustrated some of my insanity. Good stuff. Just an idea to be discarded.

Last year here in Copenhagen, Denmark they had F16 fly around at 1,500 feet for a full week, photomapping the city. Annoyed the s*** out of everybody save for us plane buffs (and man, were they loud...), and of course it could have been done a lot cheaper and less noisy with different aircraft. But then the pilots needed the air time doing this. Not a bad way of using the military stuff.

A job that takes a lot of people a lot longer than a few days, and especially as the NRO is probably better trained at identifying hidden weapon sites in mountains and SAM batteries as opposed to wrecked infrastructure. It's a interesting idea, but first time out the door it might not be running 100%. “Recon the country”?

Now Predators can IE damages etc for Rescue Teams & use 3D maps to make new roads etc. Bring in more. Use from USS Bataan for support & from So FL or Gitmo Bay alone. Recon the countryside alone for wrecks etc. Good posotive Test for Drones Bravo, kudos, Good idea.

It would have never crossed my mind that recon aircraft would be used in this relief op, but it makes sense. Interesting stuff.
