How About That for a Cool Aerospace Engg PhD?

We have good drones today. The disillusioned US born Bangladeshi guy who was going to RC controlled planes loaded with explosives into the Pentagon found fixed wing aircraft that could do 600 mph.

So? Here's the proposal :

we put an end to aviation disasters by sending fixed-wing drones to intercept civilian (or military) aircraft in trouble and provide the necessary resource. For example, if one out of two engines is dead and that's going to make the landing dicey, you can get a drone to deliver an engine that can attach to the tip of the wing on which the bad engine is, and ensure the plane is stabilized for a good landing.

You've probably thought up better ideas already. Go!
