Google’s Project Wing begins delivering burritos in rural Australia

…today we’re announcing that two Australian merchants are joining our tests, as they’re eager to understand how drone delivery could help them serve their customers better. Guzman y Gomez, a Mexican food chain, and Chemist Warehouse, a chain of pharmacies, will receive orders from our testers who’ve purchased items using the Project Wing app on their smartphones.

Project Wing’s newest delivery trial is limited to residents on the very outskirts of the ACT nearby NSW. This is largely in part to it being one of the few, semi-densely populated areas within Australia with little airspace restrictions.

Sorry folks, don’t expect burritos to rain from the sky in your area anytime soon.
