I like it.

It incorporates airport security and the low cost of employing only a few people to maintain and operate just like the other unmanned vehicles.

But do airports really need it? I mean when is there ever highly armed people breaking into airport perimeters? I think airports would only need 2 or 3 to patrol the entire complex.

I prefer when they just post a few of us Marines at the airport (lots of eye-candy at busy airports)  8-)

I can imagine spotting at a busy airport, only for this thing to roll up...and point it's camera at me. Starring. Then some people come along and tell me to leave. Creepy IMO.
