## KWM C: (203) 912 4505 2 Attn: To whom it may concern
Pursuant to Section 333 ofthe FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (the Reform Act) and 14 C.F.R. Part 11, Kenneth W. Myers, owner and operator of Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (“sUAS”) equipped to conduct aerial data collection, aerial inspections, aerial surveys and photography & videography and monitoring, hereby applies for an exemption from the listed Federal Aviation Regulations (“FARs”) to allow commercial operation of sUAS, so long as such operations are conducted under the conditions outlined by the FAA as required by Section 333.1
The proposed exemption, ifgranted, would allow Kenneth W. Myers to conduct commercial operations of small unmanned aircraf t systems (“sUAS”) meeting or exceeding all ofthe operational and safety requirements Congress has set forth in Section 333. Statutory Authority Section 333, titled “Special Rules for Certain Unmanned Aircraft Systems” provides
a mechanism for seeking expedited FAA authorization of safe civil UAS operations in the NAS. Section 333(a) states that the FAA “shall determine ifcertain unmanned aircraft systems may operate safely in the national airspace system before completion ofthe (comprehensive) plan and rulemaking required by section 332(b)(1) ofthis Act or the guidance required by section 334 ofthis Act.” In Section 332(b)(1), Congress made it clear that Section 333 provides a mechanism for “expedited operation authorization” if several factors are met. Petitioner meets all requirements to permit FAA approval ofcommercial UAS operations.

We have closely reviewed the FAA’s existing exemption grants under section 333, and submit this request as being materially similar to Exemptions 11430, 11365, 11409, 11209, 11111 among others. We are fully prepared and willing to operate under (and abide by) the exemptions already granted and the conditions required in Exemptions 11430 and 11365. The detailed request below is provided to further demonstrate our understanding ofthe rationale for the FAR exemption requests and associated decisions by the FAA, as well as provide a basis for establishing our need for the same.
We hope the FAA determines that good cause exists for not requiring publishing petition summary in the Federal Register as this request does not set a precedent and parallels existing grant authorizations. Regards,
Kenneth W. Myers

Kenneth W. Myers is petitioning for exemption to enable Kenneth W. Myers to operate; [DJi Phantom 3 (approved grant #13052)], [DJi Inspire 1 (approved grant #13055)] each weighing less than 10 Lbs. and utilizing flight controllers known and familiar to the FAA

– and having the required safety features; GPS, loss of signal RTL, GEO fence, low battery RTL, real

-time telemetry, OSD, etc. See below.
The sUASs will be equipped with cameras or imagers, stabilizing gimbals and OSD (on screen displays) providing the PIC with GPS strength, altitude, airspeed, battery life and direction

. Our UAS flight controllers utilize GEO fence to limit the altitude above the ground and limit the radius ofthe distance it flies from the PIC. Our UASs have GPS guided failsafe functions allowing the autopilot system to fly back to the launch site autonomously. Ifthe transmitter is disconnected the system will automatically trigger return to home and will land safely.
Kenneth W. Myers owns and operates a project management and inspection services company
. Project Managers (like Kenneth W. Myers) have long worked under industry standard operating procedures and industry best practices

. Kenneth W. Myers is a native US Citizen.

All documents needed to operate the UAS and conduct its operations in accordance with the conditions and limitations stated in the grant of exemption “operating documents.” The operating documents must be accessible during UAS operations and made available to the Administrator upon request. If a discrepancy exists between the conditions and limitations in this exemption and the procedures outlined in the operating documents, the conditions and limitations herein take precedence and must be followed. Otherwise, the operator must follow the procedures as outlined in its operating documents. The operator may update or revise its operating documents. It is the operator’s responsibility to track such revisions and present updated and revised documents to the Administrator or any law enforcement official upon request. The operator must also present updated and revised documents ifit petitions for extension or amendment to this grant of exemption. Ifthe operator determines that any update r revision would affect the basis upon which the FAA granted this exemption, then 4the operator must petition for an amendment to its grant of exemption. The FAA’s UAS Integration Office (AFS
−80) may be contacted if questions arise regarding updates or revisions to the operating documents.
8. Any UAS that has undergone maintenance or alterations that affect the UAS operation or flight characteristics, e.g., replacement of a flight critical component, must undergo a functional test flight prior to conducting further operations under this exemption. Functional test flights may only be conducted by a PIC with a VO and must remain at least 500 feet from other people. The functional test flight must be conducted in such a manner so as to not pose an undue hazard to persons and property.

HOW THIS REQUIST IS TO THE BETTERMENT OF OUR COMMUNITY
Kenneth W. Myers sUAS are powered by batteries, smaller, lighter and more maneuverable than larger aircraft running on combustible fuel, it operates at lower altitudes with no people on board and will thereby reduce current risk levels associated with traditional aircraft, enhance safety and diminish the likelihood of death or serious bodily injury. Also with a small payload and typical flight time of only 10

-25 minutes, there is little or no risk to national security.
Low level photos and video are far more effective than ground or high altitude manned aircraft imagery for displaying detailed characteristics of ground based objects or elevations required for plant, asset and structural inspection with standard or infrared cameras. The applicant is aware of costs associated with full

-sized helicopters or planes for parallel purpose, which is proven more costly than many potential clients have been able to afford. The benefits of reduced cost and improved quality ofpresentation from the UAS will be incredibly valuable to clients.

## KWM C: (203) 912 4505 10 EXEMPTION REQUESTS AND EQUIVALENT LEVEL OF SAFETY
Kenneth W. Myers requests an exemption from the following regulations as well as any additional regulations that may technically apply to the operation ofthe sUAS System.
14 CFR Part 21, Airworthiness Certificates: This part establishes the procedures for the issuance of an airworthiness certificate. While the FAA continues to work to develop airworthiness standards for Unmanned Aerial Systems, we request an experimental certificate be issued for our UAS’s under either or both ofthe following provisions: 21.191 Experimental certificates. Experimental certificates are issued for the following purposes: (a) Research and development. Testing new aircraft design concepts, new aircraft equipment, new aircraft installations, new aircraft operating techniques, or new uses for aircraft. (b) Showing compliance with regulations. Conducting flight tests and other operations to show compliance with the airworthiness regulations including flights to show compliance for issuance of type and supplemental type certificates, flights to substantiate major design changes, and flights to show compliance with the function and reliability requirements of the regulations.
Since the experimental certificate can be used for commercial purposes such as market surveys, sales demonstrations, and customer crew training, we would expect that an experimental certificate would permit our commercial purpose as well. The aircraft will not carry persons or property, will not carry fuel, and will only fly under strict operational requirements. Combined with the UAS lightweight, being constructed primarily of carbon fiber and plastic in conjunction with the ability to utilize emergency parachute systems. We propose that the UAS will be at least as safe, if not safer, than a conventionally certificated aircraft performing the same mission. If an experimental airworthiness certificate is not appropriate for this application, then we request an exemption of 14 CFR Part 21, Subpart H, and the requirement for an airworthiness certificate in general, citing the equivalent level of safety outlined in the previous paragraph.

14 CFR 45.23 Display of marks; general and 45.29 Size of marks: These regulations provide that each aircraft must display "N" and the aircraft's registration number in letters at least 3 inches high. Additionally, the aircraft must display the word "EXPERIMENTAL" in letters at least 2 inches high near the entrance to the cabin, cockpit, or pilot station. The sUAS does not have an entrance in which the word "EXPERIMENTAL" can be placed, and may not have a registration number assigned to it by the FAA. We will display at the ground station a flag or banner that

## 5 South west Drive  

## Stamford  

## CT  

## 06905 O/F: (203) 890 9500  

## ECM C: (203) 856 2828

 

## KWM C: (203) 912 4505 11 containing the words "Unmanned Aircraft Ground Station." Since the aircraft will operate within 3/4 NM of the ground station, the banner should be visible to anyone that observes the aircraft and chooses to investigate its point of origin.
14 CFR 91.7 Prohibits the Operation of an aircraft without an airworthiness certificate: As no such certificate will be applicable in the form contemplated by the FARs, this Regulation is inapplicable.
91.119 Minimum safe altitudes: The regulation states that over sparsely populated areas the aircraft cannot be operated closer than 500 feet to any person, vessel, vehicle, or structure. Since the typical mission ofthe sUAS would be inspect or survey persons, vessels, vehicles or structures it would be necessary to operate closer than 500 feet to the items listed. The hazard to persons or property on the surface will be very limited. Therefore we maintain that due to the small size ofthe UAS, the hazard to persons, vehicles and structures is minimal compared to manned aircraft, which should be considered in granting the exemption. The exemption is not unlike 11062, 11136, and 11111 among others.
CFR 91.121 Altimeter settings: The regulation requires that aircraft shall maintain cruising altitudes by reference to an altimeter setting available within 100 NM ofthe aircraft. The sUAS will always fly below 400 feet AGL and will not need to maintain cruising altitudes in order to prevent conflict with other aircraft. An Above Ground Level altimeter measurement above the takeoffpoint is transmitted via radio from the sUAS on
-board computer to the display screen held by the PIC, providing a constantly updated AGL readout. The Pix4D flight controller can be configured to geo
-fence the UAS under the 400’ maximum altitude.

14 CFR 91.151 Fuel requirements for flight in VFR conditions: The regulation provides that no person may begin a flight in an airplane under day

VFR conditions unless there is enough fuel to fly to the first point of intended landing and to fly after that for at least 30 minutes. The purpose ofthis is to provide an energy reserve as a safety buffer for delays to landing. Since the aircraft will never fly more than 3/4 NM from the point of intended landing, a full battery charge at launch will ensure that we meet the reserve energy requirement ofthis paragraph. 30% minimum reserve for immediate landing.
14 CFR Subpart E (91.401

- 91.417)

-Maintenance, Preventive Maintenance, Alterations: The regulation provides that the operator is primarily responsible for maintaining the aircraft in an airworthy condition, including compliance with part 39 and 43. Paragraphs 91.407 and 91.409 require that the aircraft be "approved for

## KWM C: (203) 912 4505 12 return to service by a person authorized under 43.7" after maintenance and inspection. It is our intention that the PIC perform maintenance and inspection of the aircraft and "be authorized to approve the aircraft for return to service." The PIC will ensure that the aircraft is in an airworthy condition prior to every flight and in addition conduct detailed inspections after every five hours of flight. All maintenance will be performed by the PIC in accordance with the manufactures manual. If required maintenance is beyond the ability ofthe PIC the maintenance will be performed by the manufacturer or their designated repair facility. The PIC will document work performed in accordance with 91.417. We feel that due to the size, construction, and simplicity ofthe aircraft, the PIC can ensure an equivalent level of safety.

14 CFR 91.405(a), 407(a), 409(a) (1) & (2), 417(a) & (b) Section 91.405(a) prescribes that: “(a) 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,”

Section 91.407(a) prescribes that: “(a) No person may operate any aircraft that has undergone maintenance, preventive maintenance, rebuilding, or alteration unless

– (1) It has been approved for return to service by a person authorized under 43.7 of this chapter; and (2) The maintenance record entry required by 43.9 or 43.11, as applicable, of this chapter has been made.”

Section 91.409(a) prescribes that: “(a) Except as provided in paragraph (c) ofthis section, no person may operate and aircraft unless, within the proceeding 12 calendar months, it has had

– (1) An annual inspection in accordance with part 43 of this chapter and has been approved for return to service by a person authorized by 43.7 of this chapter; or (2) An inspection for the issuance of an airworthiness certificate in accordance with part 21 ofthis chapter.”

Section 91.417(a) and (b) prescribe, in summary, that each registered owner and operator of an aircraft shall keep records of maintenance, alterations, service life, and inspections. Since, if an exemption is granted, the SUAS in question will not carry an airworthiness certificate, and will not have established standards with which to determine it airworthiness, we request exemption from the above listed regulations.

The exemption request is not unlike exemptions granted in 11136 and 11062, among others.
CONCLUSION By granting Kenneth W. Myers the requested exemptions, the FAA will help drive development of safe and successful commercial UAS operations and will advance the public knowledge base for such operations of UAS. Kenneth W. Myers is committed to promoting the UAS research efforts ofpolicymakers by sharing data from its commercial UAS operations and serving as a resource for future UAS research operations.
As pointed out in this application, all the sUASs which our company would use, under authorization by the US DOT

-FAA, are small, light

-weight devices operated within the line of sight ofthe Pilot

-in

-Command (PIC), less than 400 feet above the ground and outside 5 miles from any airport or location with aviation activities, unless the air traffic control authorities (ATC) have been notified and have authorized each flight within a radius ofthis distance.
Kenneth W. Myers seeks an exemption pursuant to 14 C.F.R. and Section 333 ofthe FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (FMRA), which will permit safe operation of our UAS commercially, without an airworthiness Certificate. By granting this Petition, the FAA Administrator will be fulfilling the Congressional mandate of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012, while also advancing the interests of the public, by allowing Kenneth W. Myers to safely, efficiently, and economically operate sUASs commercially within the NAS. Wherefore, in accordance with the Federal Aviation Regulations and the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012, Section 333, Kenneth W. Myers respectfully requests that the Administrator grant this Petition for an exemption from the requirements of 14 C.F.R Sections.

Sincerely,
