3 - I understood this thread is about it happening in the future, not in the next couple years.

4 - The rains aren't permanent and you can drop the drones when it is appropriate so I don't see the weather being a problem. Also I guess it is manageable to have the drones to fly up and down from the airship. If the drones can't go down they wouldn't be able to get back.

Yeah, but the things need to fly to give the lawmakers any reason to change the law in the first place. It doesn't matter how long it takes until it's ready, changes will only get initiated when it's ready.

4. Of course. But like I said, unless the distances are too long, it will simply be faster and cheaper to just have truck driver deliver them one by one in bad weather conditions. And  for the last sentence: that's the reason why the Airship would need to go lower first before starting sending out the drones. And even if they could go down, such drones often have pretty low flight ceilings, so they couldn't get back to the Airship if it wouldn't lower it's altitude.
