RE: Exemption Request Section 333 of the FAA Reform Act and Part 11 of the Federal 

Aviation Regulations from 14 C.F.R. 45.23(b); 14 CFR Part 21; 14 CFR 61.113 (a) 

& (b); 91.7 (a); 91.9 (b) (2); 91.103(b); 91.109; 91.119; 91.121; 91.151(a); 

91.203(a) & (b); 91.405 (a); 91.407(a) (1); 91.409 (a) (2); 91.417 (a) & (b).

Dear Sir or Madam:

Pursuant to Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (the 

Reform Act) and 14 C.F.R. Part 11, SHUTTER INSTINCT (“the applicant”), developer 

and operator of Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (“sUASs”) equipped to conduct

photography and videography for events and special engagements, hereby applies for an 

exemption from the listed Federal Aviation Regulations (“FARs”) to allow commercial 

operation of its sUASs, so long as such operations are conducted within and under the 

conditions outlined herein or as may be established by the FAA as required by Section 333.

As described more fully below, the requested exemption would permit the 

operation of small, unmanned, and relatively inexpensive sUAS under controlled 

conditions in airspace that is 1) limited, 2) predetermined, 3) controlled as to access, and 

4) would provide safety enhancements to the already safe operations in photography and 

videography for events and special engagements presently using conventional aircraft. 

Approval of this exemption would thereby enhance safety and fulfill the Secretary of 

Transportation’s (the FAA Administrator’s) responsibilities to “...establish requirements 

for the safe operation of such aircraft systems in the national airspace system.” Section 

333(c) of the Reform Act.

The name and address of the applicant is:

14 CFR 417 (a) & (b)

This exemption application is expressly submitted to fulfill Congress’ goal in 

passing Section 333(a) through (c) of the Reform Act. This law directs the Secretary of 

Transportation to consider whether certain unmanned aircraft systems may operate safely 

in the national airspace system (NAS) before completion of the rulemaking required under 

Section 332 of the Reform Act. In making this determination, the Secretary is required to 

determine which types of UASs do not create a hazard to users of the NAS or the public or 

pose a threat to national security in light of the following:

• The UAS’s size, weight, speed, and operational capability;

• Operation of the UAS in close proximity to airports and populated areas; and

• Operation of the UAS within visual line of sight of the operator.

Reform Act § 333 (a). Lastly, if the Secretary determines that such vehicles “may 

operate safely in the national airspace system, the Secretary shall establish requirements

for the safe operation of such aircraft in the national airspace system.” Id. §333(c) 

(emphasis added).1

The Federal Aviation Act expressly grants the FAA the authority to issue exemptions.

This statutory authority by its terms includes exempting civil aircraft, as the term is defined

under §40101 of the Act, which includes sUASs, from the requirement that all civil aircraft 

must have a current airworthiness certificate.

The Administrator may grant an exemption from a requirement of a regulation 

prescribed under subsection (a) or (b) of this section or any sections 44702-44716 of this 

title if the Administrator finds the exemption in the public interest. 49 U.S.C. §44701(f) 

See also 49 USC §44711(a); 49 USC §44704; 14 CFR §91.203 (a) (1).

 1 Applicant interprets this provision to place the duty on the Administrator to not only process applications 

for exemptions under section 333, but for the Administrator to craft conditions for the safe operation of the 

UAS, if it should be determined that the conditions set forth herein do not fulfill the statutory requirements 

for approval.
3

The applicant’s sUAS (Appendix 1) are rotorcraft, weighing 55 or fewer lbs. including 

payload. They operate under normal conditions at a speed of no more than 25 to 35 knots 

and have the capability to hover and move in the vertical and horizontal plane 

simultaneously. They will operate only in line of sight and will operate only within the 

sterile area described in the Unmanned Aircraft Systems Operations Manual, attached as 

Appendix 2 (hereinafter “the Manual”). Such operations insure that the sUAS does “not 

create a hazard to users of the national airspace system or the public.”2

Given the small size of the sUASs involved and the restricted sterile environment 

within which they will operate, the applicant falls squarely within that zone of safety (an 

equivalent level of safety) in which Congress envisioned that the FAA must, by exemption, 

allow commercial operations of UASs to commence immediately. Also due to the size of 

the UASs and the restricted areas in which the relevant sUASs will operate, approval of 

the application presents no national security issue. Given the clear direction in Section 333 

of the Reform Act, the authority contained in the Federal Aviation Act, as amended; the 

strong equivalent level of safety surrounding the proposed operations, and the significant 

public benefit, including enhanced safety, reduction in environmental impacts, including 

reduced emissions associated with allowing UASs for photography and videography for 

events and special engagements, the granting of the requested exemptions is in the public 

interest. Accordingly, the applicant respectfully requests that the FAA grant the requested 

exemption without delay.

Background Information

The applicant is in the business of photography and videography for events and special 

engagements. The applicant’s clients look to the applicant for safe operations of sUAS. 

The applicant has developed specific safe UAV operational procedures. Increasingly, the 

applicant has clients looking for sUAS services for photography and videography for 

events and special engagements.

Operations performed by the applicant include:

Photography and videography for events and special engagements.

Landscape photography and videography.

AIRCRAFT AND EQUIVALENT LEVEL OF SAFETY

The applicant proposes that the exemption requested herein apply to civil aircraft that

have the characteristics and that operate within the limitations listed herein. These 

limitations provide for at least an equivalent or even higher level of safety to operations 

under the current regulatory structure because the proposed operations represent a safety 

enhancement to the already safe photography and videography for events and special 

engagements conducted with conventional aircraft.

 2 Reform Act Section 333 (b).
4

These limitations and conditions to which the applicant agrees to be bound when

conducting commercial operations under an FAA issued exemption include:

1. The sUAS will weigh less than 55 lbs.

2. Flights will be operated within line of sight of a pilot and/or observer.

3. Maximum total flight time for each operational flight will be 30 minutes. Flights 

will be terminated at 25% battery power reserve should that occur prior to the 30 

minute limit.

4. Flights will be operated at an altitude of no more than 400 feet AGL or, not more 

than 200 feet above an elevated platform from which flight is planned.

5. Minimum crew for each operation will consist of the sUAS Pilot and the Visual 

Observer.

6. The sUAS pilot-in-command (PIC) will hold either an airline transport,

commercial, private, recreational, or sport pilot certificate. The PIC will also hold 

a current FAA airman medical certificate or a valid U.S. driver’s license issued by 

a state, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, a territory, a possession, or the 

Federal government

7. If a pilot certificate holder other than the sUAS Pilot, who possess the necessary 

PIC qualifications, is also present on site, that person can also be designated as PIC.

8. The sUAS will only operate within defined boundaries as outlined in Section 8.4

of the Manual.

9. A briefing will be conducted in regard to the planned sUAS operations prior to each

mission. It will be mandatory that all personnel who will be performing duties 

within the boundaries of the safety perimeter be present for this briefing.

10. The operator will file a FAA Form 7711-1, or its equivalent, as modified in light of 

the requested exemption, with the appropriate Flight Standards District Office

(FSDO).

11. The operator will obtain the consent of all persons involved in the mission and 

ensure that only consenting persons will be allowed within 100 feet of the flight 

operation, and this radius may be reduced to 30 feet based upon an equivalent level 

of safety determination, as required by Section 8.4 of the Manual. With the 

advanced permission of the relevant FSDO, operations at closer range can be 

approved.

12. The operator will submit a written Plan of Activities to the FSDO three days before

the proposed mission as required in Section 8.1 of the Manual. Items will include:

a. Dates and times for all flights;

b. Name and phone number of the operator for the UAS mission conducted 

under this petition of exemption;

c. Make, model, and serial or N-number of UAS to be used;

d. Name and certificate number of UAS PICs involved in the mission;

e. A statement that the operator has obtained permission from property owners 

and/or local officials to conduct the mission;

f. The list of those who gave permission made available to the inspector upon 

request;

g. Signature of exemption-holder or representative; and
5

h. A description of the flight activity, including maps or diagrams of any area,

city, town, county, and/or state over which the mission will be conducted 

and the altitudes essential to accomplish the operation.

13. Pilot and observer will have been trained in operation of UAS generally and 

received up-to-date information on the particular UAS to be operated as required 

in Sections 7.4 and 7.5 of the Manual.

14. Observer and pilot will at all times be able to communicate by voice.

15. Written and/or oral permission from the relevant property holders will be obtained.

16. All required permissions and permits will be obtained from territorial, state, county 

or city jurisdictions, including local law enforcement, fire, or other appropriate

governmental agencies.

17. If the sUAS loses communications or loses its GPS signal, the UAS will have the

capability to return to a pre-determined location within the Security Perimeter and

land.

18. The sUAS will have the capability to abort a flight in case of unpredicted obstacles 

or emergencies.

14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H: Airworthiness Certificates 14 C.F.R. §91.203 (a) (1)

Subpart H, entitled Airworthiness Certificates, establishes the procedural 

requirements for the issuance of airworthiness certificates as required by FAR §91.203 (a) 

(1). Given the size and limited operating area associated with the aircraft to be utilized by 

the Applicant, an exemption from Part 21 Subpart H meets the requirements of an 

equivalent level of safety under Part 11 and Section 333 of the Reform Act. The Federal 

Aviation Act (49 U.S.C.§44701 (f)) and Section 333 of the Reform Act both authorize the 

FAA to exempt aircraft from the requirement for an airworthiness certificate, upon 

consideration of the size, weight, speed, operational capability, and proximity to airports 

and populated areas of the particular UAS. In all cases, an analysis of these criteria 

demonstrates that the UAS operated without an airworthiness certificate, in the restricted 

environment and under the conditions proposed will be at least as safe, or safer, than a 

conventional aircraft (fixed wing or rotorcraft) operating with an airworthiness certificate 

without the restrictions and conditions proposed.

The sUAS to be operated hereunder is less than 55 lbs. fully loaded, carries neither 

a pilot nor passenger, carries no explosive materials or flammable liquid fuels, and operates

exclusively within a secured area as set out in the Manual. Unlike other civil aircraft, 

operations under this exemption will be tightly controlled and monitored by both the 

operator and observer, pursuant to the Manual’s policies, and under and in compliance with 

local public safety requirements, to provide security for the area of operation as is now 

done with conventional photography and videography for events and special engagements. 

The FAA will have advance notice of all operations. These safety enhancements, which 

already apply to civil aircraft operated in connection with photography and videography 

for events and special engagements, provide a greater degree of safety to the public and 

property owners than conventional operations conducted with airworthiness certificates 

issued under 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H. Lastly, application of these same criteria 

demonstrates that there is no credible threat to national security posed by the UAS, due to 
6

its size, speed of operation, location of operation, lack of explosive materials or flammable 

liquid fuels, and inability to carry a substantial external load.

14 C.F.R. § 45.23 (b). Marking of the Aircraft

The regulation requires:

When marks include only the Roman capital letter "N" and the registration

number is displayed on limited, restricted or light-sport category aircraft or

experimental or provisionally certificated aircraft, the operator must also 

display on that aircraft near each entrance to the cabin, cockpit, or pilot 

station, in letters not less than 2 inches nor more than 6 inches high, the 

words "limited," "restricted," "light-sport," "experimental," or 

"provisional," as applicable.

Even though the UAS will have no airworthiness certificate, an exemption may be

needed as the UAS will have no entrance to a cabin, cockpit or pilot station on which the 

word “Experimental” can be placed. Given the size of the sUAV, two-inch lettering will 

be impossible. The word “Experimental” will be placed on the fuselage in compliance with 

§45.29 (f).

The equivalent level of safety will be provided by having the sUAV marked on its

fuselage as required by §45.29 (f) where the pilot, observer and others working with the 

sUAV will see the identification of the UAS as “Experimental.” The FAA has issued the 

following exemptions to this regulation to Exemptions Nos. 10700, 8738, 10167 and 

10167A.

14 C.F.R. § 61.113 (a) & (b): Private Pilot Privileges and Limitations: Pilot in 

Command.

Sections 61.113 (a) & (b) limit private pilots to non-commercial operations. 

Because the UAS will not carry a pilot or passengers, the proposed operations can achieve 

the equivalent level of safety of current operations by requiring the PIC operating the 

aircraft to have a pilot’s certificate operate this small UAS. Unlike a conventional aircraft 

that carries the pilot and passengers, the sUAS is remotely controlled with no living thing 

on board. The area of operation is controlled and restricted, and all flights are planned and 

coordinated in advance as set forth in the Manual. The level of safety provided by the 

requirements included in the Manual exceeds that provided by a single individual holding 

a commercial pilot’s certificate operating a conventional aircraft. The risks associated with 

the operation of the sUAS are so diminished from the level of risk associated with 

commercial operations contemplated by Part 61 when drafted, that allowing operations of 

the sUAS as requested by a pilot’s certificate as the PIC exceeds the present level of safety 

achieved by 14 C.F.R. §61.113 (a) & (b).

14 C.F.R. §91.7(a): Civil aircraft airworthiness.
7

The regulation requires that no person may operate a civil aircraft unless it is in 

airworthy condition. As there will be no airworthiness certificate issued for the aircraft, 

should this exemption be granted, no FAA regulatory standard will exist for determining 

airworthiness. Given the size of the aircraft and the requirements contained in the Manual 

for maintenance and use of safety checklists prior to each flight, as set forth in Sections 9.1 

and 9.6, an equivalent level of safety will be provided.

14 C.F.R. § 91.9 (b) (2): Civil Aircraft Flight Manual in the Aircraft.

Section 91.9 (b) (2) provides:

No person may operate a U.S.-registered civil aircraft ... (2) For which an 

Airplane or Rotorcraft Flight Manual is not required by §21.5 of this 

chapter, unless there is available in the aircraft a current approved airplane 

or Rotorcraft Flight Manual, approved manual material, markings, and

placards, or any combination thereof.

The sUAS, given its size and configuration has no ability or place to carry such a 

flight manual on the aircraft, not only because there is no pilot on board, but because there 

is no room or capacity to carry such an item on the aircraft.

The equivalent level of safety will be maintained by keeping the flight manual at 

the ground control point where the pilot flying the sUAS will have immediate access to it. 

The FAA has issued the following exemptions to this regulation: Exemption Nos. 8607, 

8737, 8738, 9299, 9299A, 9565, 9565B, 10167, 10167A, 10602, 32827, and 10700.

14 C.F.R. § 91.103: Preflight action

This regulation requires each pilot in command to take certain actions before flight 

to insure the safety of flight. As FAA approved rotorcraft flight manuals will not be 

provided for the aircraft, an exemption will be needed. An equivalent level of safety will 

be provided as set forth in Sections 8 and 9 of the Manual. The PIC will take all actions 

including reviewing weather, flight battery requirements, landing and takeoff distances,

and aircraft performance data before initiation of flight.

14 C.F.R. §91.109: Flight instruction

Section 91.103 provides that no person may operate a civil aircraft (except a 

manned free balloon) that is being used for flight instruction unless that aircraft has fully 

functioning dual controls.

sUASs and remotely piloted aircraft, by their design do not have fully functional 

dual controls. Flight control is accomplished through the use of a control box that 

communicates with the aircraft via radio communications. The FAA has approved 

exemptions for flight training without fully functional dual controls for a number of aircraft 

and for flight instruction in experimental aircraft. See Exemption Nos. 5778K & 9862A. 
8

The equivalent level of safety provided by the fact that neither a pilot nor passengers will 

be carried in the aircraft and by the size and speed of the aircraft.

14 C.F.R. §91.119: Minimum safe altitudes

Section 91.119 establishes safe altitudes for operation of civil aircraft. Section 

91.119(d) allows helicopters to be operated at less than the minimums prescribed, provided 

the person operating the helicopter complies with any route or altitudes prescribed for 

helicopters by the FAA. As this exemption is for a sUAS that is a helicopter and the 

exemption requests authority to operate at altitudes up to 400 AGL, or not more than 200 

above an elevated platform from which operation is planned, an exemption may be needed 

to allow such operations. As set forth herein, except for the limited conditions stated in the 

Manual, the UAS will never operate at higher than 400 AGL. It will, however, be operated

in a restricted area with a security perimeter, where buildings and people will not be 

exposed to operations without their pre-obtained consent.

The equivalent level of safety will be achieved given the size, weight, and speed of 

the UAS as well as the location where it is operated. No flight will be taken without the 

permission of the property owner or local officials. Because of the advance notice to the 

property owner and participants in the mission, all affected individuals will be aware of the 

planned flight operations as set forth in Section 6.2, 8.1, and 8.2 of the Manual. Compared 

to flight operations with aircraft or rotorcraft weighing far more than the maximum 55lbs. 

proposed herein and the lack of flammable fuel, any risk associated with these operations 

is far less than those presently presented with conventional aircraft operating at or below 

500 AGL in the photography and videography for events and special engagements. In

addition, the low-altitude operations of the sUAS will ensure separation between these 

small UAS operations and the operations of conventional aircraft that must comply with 

Section 91.119.

14 C.F.R. §91.121 Altimeter Settings

This regulation requires each person operating an aircraft to maintain cruising 

altitude by reference to an altimeter that is set “...to the elevation of the departure airport 

or an appropriate altimeter setting available before departure.” As the sUAS may not have 

a barometric altimeter, but instead a GPS altitude read out, an exemption may be needed. 

An equivalent level of safety will be achieved by the operator, pursuant to the Manual and 

safety checklist, confirming the altitude of the launch site shown on the GPS altitude 

indicator before flight.

14 C.F.R. § 91.151(a): Fuel Requirements for Flight in VFR Conditions

Section 91.151 (a) prohibits an individual from beginning “a flight in an airplane 

under VFR conditions unless (considering wind and forecast weather conditions) there is 

enough fuel to fly to the first point of intended landing, and, assuming normal cruising 

speed – (1) During the day, to fly after that for at least 30 minutes; or (2) at night, to fly 

after that for at least 45 minutes.”
9

The battery powering the sUAS provides approximately 30 minutes of powered 

flight. To meet the 30-minute reserve requirement in 14 CFR §91.151, sUAS flights would 

be limited to approximately 20 minutes in length. Given the limitations on the UAS’s 

proposed flight area and the location of its proposed operations within a predetermined 

area, a longer time frame for flight in daylight or night VFR conditions is reasonable.

Applicant believes that an exemption from 14 CFR §91.151(a) falls within the 

scope of prior exemptions. See Exemption 10673 (allowing Lockheed Martin Corporation 

to operate without compliance with FAR 91.151 (a)). Operating the small UAS, in a tightly 

controlled area where only people and property owners or official representatives who have 

signed waivers will be allowed, with less than 30 minutes of reserve fuel, does not engender 

the type of risks that Section 91.151(a) was intended to alleviate given the size and speed 

of the small UAS. Additionally, limiting sUAS flights to 20 minutes would greatly reduce 

the utility for which the exemption will be granted.

Applicant believes that an equivalent level of safety can be achieved by limiting 

flights to 20 minutes or 25% of battery power whichever happens first. This restriction 

would be more than adequate to return the sUAS to its planned landing zone from anywhere 

in its limited operating area.

Similar exemptions have been granted to other operations, including Exemptions 

2689F, 5745, 10673, and 10808.

14 C.F.R. §91.203 (a) and (b): Carrying Civil Aircraft Certification and Registration

The regulation provides in pertinent part:

(a) Except as provided in § 91.715, no person may operate a civil aircraft

unless it has within it the following:

(1) An appropriate and current airworthiness certificate. . . .

(b) No person may operate a civil aircraft unless the airworthiness certificate

required by paragraph (a) of this section or a special flight authorization 

issued under §91.715 is displayed at the cabin or cockpit entrance so that it 

is legible to passengers or crew.

The UAS fully loaded weighs no more than 55 lbs and is operated without an 

onboard pilot. As such, there is no ability or place to carry certification and registration 

documents or to display them on the sUAS.

An equivalent level of safety will be achieved by keeping these documents at the 

ground control point where the pilot flying the sUAS will have immediate access to them, 

to the extent they are applicable to the sUAS. The FAA has issued numerous exemptions 
10

to this regulation. A representative sample of other exceptions includes Exemption Nos. 

9565, 9665, 9789, 9789A, 9797, 9797A, 9816A, and 10700.

14 C.F.R. §91.405 (a); 407 (a) (1); 409 (a) (2); 417(a) & (b): Maintenance Inspections

These regulations require that an aircraft operator or owner “shall have that aircraft

inspected as prescribed in subpart E of this part and shall between required inspections, 

except as provided in paragraph (c) of this section, have discrepancies repaired as 

prescribed in part 43 of this chapter...,” and others shall inspect or maintain the aircraft in 

compliance with Part 43.

Given that these sections and Part 43 apply only to aircraft with an airworthiness

certificate, these sections will not apply to the applicant. Maintenance will be accomplished 

by the operator pursuant to the flight manual and operating handbook as referenced in the

Manual (See Sections 8.6 and 9). An equivalent level of safety will be achieved because 

these small UASs are very limited in size and will carry a small payload and operate only 

in restricted areas for limited periods of time. If mechanical issues arise the UAS can land 

immediately and will be operating from no higher than 400 feet AGL. As provided in the 

Manual, the operator will ensure that the UAS is in working order prior to initiating flight, 

perform required maintenance, and keep a log of any maintenance performed. Moreover,

the operator is the person most familiar with the aircraft and best suited to maintain the 

aircraft in an airworthy condition to provide the equivalent level of safety.

Pursuant to 14 C.F.R. Part 11, the following summary is provided for publication 

in the Federal Register, should it be determined that publication is needed:

Applicant seeks an exemption from the following rules:

14 C.F.R. §21, subpart H; 14 C.F.R 45.23(b);14 C.F.R. §§ 61.113( a) & 

(b);91.7 (a); 91.9 (b) (2);91.103(b);91.109; 91.119; 91.121; 91.151(a);91.203(a) 

and (b); 91.405 (a); 91.407 (a) (1); 91.409 (a) (2); 91.409 (a) (2) and 91.417 (a) & 

(b) to operate commercially a small unmanned vehicle (55lbs or less) in motion 

picture and television operations.

Approval of exemptions allowing commercial operations of sUASs in the 

photography and videography for events and special engagements will enhance safety by 

reducing risk. Conventional photography and videography for events and special 

engagements, using jet or piston power aircraft, operate at extremely low altitudes just feet 

from the infrastructure being inspected and in extreme proximity to people and structures; 

and present the risks associated with vehicles that weigh in the neighborhood of 4,000lbs,

carrying large amounts of jet A or other fuel. Such aircraft must fly to and from the work

location. In contrast, a sUAS weighing fewer than 55 lbs. and powered by batteries 

eliminates virtually all of that risk given the reduced mass and lack of combustible fuel 

carried on board. The sUAS is carried to the worksite and not flown. The sUAS will carry 
11

no passengers or crew and, therefore, will not expose them to the risks associated with 

manned aircraft flights.

The operation of small UASs, weighing less than 55 lbs., conducted in the strict

conditions outlined above, will provide an equivalent level of safety supporting the grant 

of the exemptions requested herein, including exempting the applicant from the 

requirements of Part 21 and allowing commercial operations. These lightweight aircraft 

operate at slow speeds, close to the ground, and in a sterile environment and, as a result, 

are far safer than conventional operations conducted with turbine helicopters operating in 

close proximity to the ground and people.

Privacy

All flights will occur over private or controlled access property with the property owner’s 

prior consent and knowledge. Photography and videography for events and special 

engagements will be performed for people who have also consented for work to be 

performed or otherwise have agreed to be in the area where UAS flight will take place.

Conclusion

Satisfaction of the criteria provided in Section 333 of the Reform Act of 2012 – size,

weight, speed, operating capabilities, proximity to airports and populated areas and 

operation within visual line of sight and national security – provide more than adequate 

justification for the grant of the requested exemptions allowing commercial operation of 

applicant’s UAS in the photography and videography for events and special engagements

pursuant to the Manual appended hereto.

Sincerely,

Jason Hermosa, Owner
