"Uninhabited?" So there was nobody claiming the helicopter as their domicile? :)
Strange house. Lol
Perhaps the writer is one of those over-sensitized types and was trying to avoid the use of the word "unmanned."
Agreed! I think "pilotless" would have aptly described the event and not put the writer in jeopardy in this new world we live in where pronouns rule the day!
Pilotless, unmanned, unoccupied and uninhabited are all terms that are used in the industry.
But we are not all "from the industry" and as such a more common term was in order. All IMHO.
Yeah, definitely a stupid choice of word on the part of some English-challenged typical US college "graduate".
