France's La Poste uses drone to deliver to Alps
A mountain village has become the second in France to receive parcels by drone.
A post van in the Alps has been equipped with a drone take-off and landing pad attached to one door.

La Poste subsidiary DPD says it is quicker and safer than taking vehicles up narrow roads.
Drones are also used in the Var.
