FAA approves Google's drone delivery service for commercial use in the U.S.

After getting approved for commercial air delivery in Australia earlier this month, Alphabet's Wing drone delivery service has now received the green light from the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration to allow it to start air dropping packages to customers in the U.S.

The FAA's certification of Wing, which was signed on Friday and Monday, essentially classifies the drone company as a small-sized air carrier, according to Bloomberg. Wing says it'll begin commercial drone deliveries in Blacksburg and Christiansburg, two rural towns in Virginia "within months."
