For the preceding week , we ’ve been waiting for Alphabet ’s Project Wing to begin its bold burrito opening : delivering tortilla - envelop goodness by laggard . Now , Alphabet and Chipotle have started testing the service atVirginia Techand onsite newsman are tweeting their impressions .
Most of it is as you ’d await . There ’s a lagger , and it ’s delivering burritos . But receiving those airborne burrito does n’t come flash .

Chipotle says that this is a “ unparalleled test ” and “ everything about it is singular to this programme . ” However , it would seem that pricing is a breaker point of interest as it ’s the subject of several questions on a subsequent exploiter survey .
It also looks like you get a destitute chapeau for filling out a survey .

Obviously , this is n’t what monotone pitch will look when its quick for the braggy time . Roanoke Times reporter Jacob Demmitt says the drone get hold of the same route over and over again , and there are rubber nets everywhere . So get ’s call it an elaborate atomic number 59 stunt and leave it at that . But the argument that drone delivery would significantly ignore back on costs does n’t seem to be holding up , at least not for the client .
At least you get some barren Saratoga chip and guacamole in the drone - rescue future .
