1. A process comprising:
- controlling at least one unoccupied flying vehicle (UFV) from a base station including at least;
obtaining at least one indicator of at least one flight attribute corresponding to a first UFV;
receiving at least one message from a second UFV, the at least one message autonomously formulated by the second UFV and including at least one flight adjustment request for adjusting a flight path of at least one of the first UFV or the second UFV;
autonomously formulating at least one command directing one or more flight control decisions for at least the second UFV including at least analyzing the at least one indicator of at least one flight attribute corresponding to the first UFV and the autonomously formulated at least one flight adjustment request for adjusting a flight path of at least one of the first UFV or the second UFV, determining one or more flight control decisions based at least partially on the analysis, and formulating the at least one command based at least partially on the determined one or more flight control decisions; and
transmitting the at least one command to the second UFV, wherein at least one of the obtaining at least one indicator, the receiving at least one message, the autonomously formulating at least one command directing one or more flight control decisions, or the transmitting the at least one command is at least partially implemented using one or more processing devices.

Abstract
Disclosed herein are example embodiments for base station control for an unoccupied flying vehicle (UFV). For certain example embodiments, at least one machine, such as a base station, may: (i) obtain at least one indicator of at least one flight attribute corresponding to a first UFV; or (ii) transmit to a second UFV at least one indicator of at least one flight attribute corresponding to a first UFV. However, claimed subject matter is not limited to any particular described embodiments, implementations, examples, or so forth.
