Historic attitudes favouring globalisation are fundamentally changing....
The Seattle-based company began testing drones in the UK last year, which was before it began testing in the US, because it received a US licence to test only in March this year. Mr Bezos praised the relatively liberal UK system as being 'a very encouraging example of good regulation'.
Biggest issue
The company is working on developing a drone delivery service called Prime Air, though Mr Bezos said that drone delivery will not happen for many years. He added: 'One day Prime Air deliveries will be as common as seeing a mail truck. The technical problems are very straight ahead. The biggest issue, or the biggest thing that needs to be worked on, is the regulatory side.' Sources: Financial Times; Business Insider
