The advent of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or drones, as they are popularly known as, has opened a plethora of areas where they can be used and efficiently deployed to perform tasks that are otherwise redundant to humans. Companies across the world are contemplating the applications of UAVs in the delivery of items. We, in this paper, plan to incorporate a class of UAVs called fixed wing UAVs for the delivery of newspapers. Our aim is to determine the exact location where a newspaper parcel needs to be dropped from a UAV so that it reaches its intended destination. Forces of gravity and air drag have been considered in our calculations. Based on the permissible flying ranges, the weight of the newspaper parcel and the drag experienced, our equations calculate the point of parcel drop.
