China Changing Law of the Air, says new U.S. Ambassador


Scott Brown, new U.S. ambassador to New Zealand, told the Foreign Relations committee that China is changing the Law of the Air.


"New Zealand [is] addressing that region's very serious needs and concerns, especially with regard to China and its expansionism changing the law of the sea and the law of the air — building islands and militarizing them that really just change international law as we've all known them."

In related news, China has launched a swarm of 119 fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles, breaking the previous record of a swarm of 67 drones, according to the China Electronics Technology Group Corporation (CETC).

Who are the parties in China interested in passive solar-powered flight, who can help us keep open "bike lanes" in the air?
