(01/14/11) New York's Air National Guard says it till begin flying unmanned surveillance planes over the Adirondacks beginning this summer. The training missions will be used to help pilots and ground crews learn how to remote-control a spy plane known as the MQ-9 Reaper.
As Brian Mann reports, the planes will fly out of Fort Drum, but the pilots will be manning consoles in Syracuse.
