and the general public that would serve the public interest.

Approval of this exemption would thereby enhance safety and

fulfill the Secretary of

Transportation's (the FAA Administrators) responsibilities to " ...

establish requirements

for the safe operation of such aircraft systems in the national

airspace system . "Section

333(c) of the Reform Act.

It is possible to operate an UAS so to not create a hazard to

users of the National

Airspace System (NAS) , the public or pose a threat to national

security if done so safely

and responsibly . The applicant has demonstrated their

willingness to act safely and

responsibly by not engaging in commercial UAS operations . The

applicant has worked

within FAA guidelines to obtain a legal authorization to conduct

commercial operations.

Additionally, the fact that the applicant currently holds a FAA

Private Pilot

Certificate demonstrates that the applicant has a high regard to

safe operations, as well

as a necessary understanding of the NAS and FARs . The

experience of a

FAA certificate serves to add significantly to the level of safety

in any operation

performed by the applicant or the applicant's employees.

Sincerely,

William Brady
