Buchalter Nemer Los Angeles • Irvine • San Francisco • Scottsdale www.buchalter.com I. PETITION SUMMARY Pursuant to Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 , Pub. L. No. 112

- 95 (2012) , 126 Stat. 11 (“Section 333”) and the Federal Aviation Administration’s (“FAA”) general exemption authority under 49 U.S.C. § 44701(f), Picture Factory, Inc. (“ Petitioner ”) hereby petitions for exemption s from 14 C.F.R.
Part 21, 14 C.F.R. §§ 61.113(a) and (b), 61.133 (a) , 91.7(a), 91.9(b)(2), 91.103 (b)(1) , 91.119 (c) , 91.121, 91.151, 91.203(a) and (b), 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1) 91.409(a)(2), 91.417(a)

- (b). The proposed exemption s , if granted , would allow Petitioner to operate small , camera - mounted unmanned aircraft systems (“UAS”) weighing 55 pounds or less for the purpose of closed

- set filming of motion pictures, music videos, web videos, corporate videos, te levision programs and commercials , and still p hotography

. Based on the small size of Petitioner’s UAS , the qualifications and experience of Petitioner’s UAS operators, and the restricted , sterile environment within which Petitioner will operate, the requested exemptions fall squarely within the zone o f safety envisioned by Congress and set forth in Section 333. Additionally, the e nhanced safety achieved by replacing significantly larger manned aircraft carrying crew and flammable fuel with small UAS carrying no passengers or crew and operated under th e specific guidelines and procedures proposed by Petitioner gives the FAA good cause to find that the UAS operations enabled by the instant Petition are in the public interest. Thus, the requested exemptions should be granted

Buchalter Nemer Los Angeles • Irvine • San Francisco • Scottsdale www.buchalter.com II. BACKGROUND For more than two decade s , Petitioner ’ s production and filming professionals have provided advanced motion picture services and camera support for films, television programs, corporate and music videos , and events around the world. Combining the latest technology with a l ong track record of safe and successful projects , Petitioner ’s technical expertise has been relied upon for filming projects ranging from the Olympic Games to feature films

. In order to continue to provide the highest level of service , and to promote safety by eliminating the need for large manned aircraft on a filming set , Petitioner seeks regulatory exemptions that will allow Petitioner to employ camera mounted UAS technology in the filming and production process.
III. STATUTORY AUTHORITY A. Section 333 Sect ion 333 , titled “Special Rules for Certain Unmanned Aircraft Systems,” provides a mechanism for seeking expedited FAA authorization of safe civil UAS operations in the National Airspace System (“NAS”). Section 333 (a) states that the FAA “shall determine if certain unmanned aircraft systems may operate safely in the national airspace system before completion of the [comprehensive] plan and rulemaking required by section 332(b)(1) of this Act or the guidance required by section 334 of this Act.” In Section 332(b)(1), Congress made it clear that Section 333 provides a mechanism for “expedited operational authorization.” The FAA has committed to complying with this mandate by granting several petitions almost identical to the one at hand. See, e.g.,October 1, 2014 Page 4

Buchalter Nemer Los Angeles • Irvine • San Francisco • Scottsdale www.buchalter.com Exempti on No. 11062, Regulatory Docket No. FAA

- 2014

- 0352 (granting regulatory exemptions to Astraeus Aerial for operation of unmanned aircraft systems for the purpose of filming for the motion picture and television industry). Section 333(b) identifies several fa ctors that the FAA should consider in determining whether commercial UAS operations should be approved. These include UAS that, “as a result of their size, weight, speed, operational capability, proximity to airports and populated areas, and operation wit hin visual line of sight do not create a hazard to users of the [NAS] or the public or pose a threat to national security.” See Section 333(b).
B. Section 44701(f) In addition to the specific authority conferred by Section 333, the FAA Administrator has gene ral authority to grant exemptions from the FAA’s safety regulations and minimum standards when the Administrator decides a req uested exemption is in the public interest. See U.S.C. § 44701(f).
IV. REQUESTED EXEMPTIONS Petitioner requests relief from the following regulations:
Part 21 prescribes, in pertinent part, the procedural requirements for issuing and changing design approvals, production approvals, airworthiness certificates, and airworthiness approvals.October 1, 2014 Page 5

Buchalter Nemer Los Angeles • Irvine • San Francisco • Scottsdale www.buchalter.com Section 61.113 prescribes that “no person w ho holds a private pilot certificate may act as a pilot in command of an aircraft that is carrying passengers or property for compensation or hire; nor may that person, for compensation or hire, act as pilot in command of an aircraft ,” ( see Section 61.113( a)), and that “a private pilot may, for compensation or hire , act as pilot in command of an aircraft in connection with any business or employment if: (1) The flight is only incidental to that business or employment; and (2) The aircraft does not carry pas sengers or property for compensation or hire,” ( see Section 61.113(b)). Section 61.133 (a) sets forth privileges for persons holding commercial p ilot certificates, including a provision impliedly limiting to persons holding a commercial pilot certificate the ability to act as pilot in command of an aircraft “[f]or com pensation or hire

. ” Section 91.7(a) prescribes, in pertinent part, that no person may operate a civil aircraft unless it is in an airworthy condition. Section 91.9(b)(2) prohibits operation of U.S. registered civil aircraft 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. Section 91.103 (b)(1) prescribes, in pertinent p art, that each pilot in command shall, before beginning a flight, become familiar with all available information concerning that fl ight, to include, “ For any flight, runway lengths at airports of intendedOctober 1, 2014 Page 6

Buchalter Nemer Los Angeles • Irvine • San Francisco • Scottsdale www.buchalter.com use, and the following takeoff and l anding distance information:... For civil aircraft for which an approved Airplane or Rotorcraft Flight Manual containing takeoff and landing distance data is required, the takeoff and landing distance data contained therein. ” Section 91.119 (c) prescribes that, except when necessary for takeoff or landing, no person may operate an aircraft below the following altitudes: “ Over other than congested areas. An altitude of 500 feet above the surface, except over open water or sparsely populated areas. In those cases, the aircra ft may not be operated closer than 500 feet to any person, vessel, vehicle, or structure. ” Section 91.121 requires, in pertinent part, 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.” Section 91.151(a) prescribes that no person may begin 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. Section 91.203 prohibits, in subpart (a) , any person from operating a civil aircraft unless it has within it (1) an appropriate and curr ent airworthiness certificate; and (2) an effective U.S. registration certificate issued to its owner or, for operation within the United States, the second copy of the Aircraft Registration Application as provided for inOctober 1, 2014 Page 7

Buchalter Nemer Los Angeles • Irvine • San Francisco • Scottsdale www.buchalter.com § 47.31(c). Section 91.203 prescr ibes, in subpart (b) , that no person may operate a civil aircraft unless the airworthiness certificate 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. Sectio n 91.405(a) requires, in pertinent part, that an aircraft operator or owner shall have the aircraft inspected as prescribed in subpart E of the same part and shall, between required inspections, except as provided in paragraph (c) of the same section, have discrepancies repaired as prescribed in Part 43 of the chapter. Section 91.407(a)(1) prohibits, in pertinent part, any person from operating an aircraft that has undergone maintenance, preventative maintenance, rebuilding, or alteration unless it has been approved for return to service by a person authorized under § 43.7 of the same chapter. Section 91.409(a)(2) prescribes, in pertinent part, that no person may operate an aircraft unless, within the preceding 12 calendar months, it has had an inspection fo r the issuance of an airworthiness certificate in accordance with part 21 of this chapter. Section 91.417(a) and (b) prescribes, in pertinent part, that

- (a) Each registered owner or operator shall keep the following records for the periods specified in paragr aph (b) of this section: (1) Records of the maintenance , preventative maintenance, and alteration and records of the 100

- hour, annual, progressive,October 1, 2014 Page 8

V. PETITIONER’S PROPOSED OPERATIONS SATISFY SECTION 333. A. Unmanned Aircr aft System The UAS to b e operated under this request are less than 55 lbs. fully loaded, will be operated at a speed of no more than 50 knots , carry neithe r a pilot nor passenger, carry no explosive materials or flammable liquids, and operate exclusively w ithin a secured

area. Petitioner’s UAS use a radio frequency spectrum for operation and control that complies with Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) requirements , and Petitioner has integrated safety features into the UAS , as described in Petition er’s Flight Operations and Procedures Manual (“FOPM”) and Motion Picture and Television Flight Operation Manual (“MPTFOM”) (collectively, “operations manuals”)

. 1
Petitioner’ s UAS are equipped with redundant safety mechanisms allowing them to operate safely after experiencing certain in

- flight failures. If a lost

- link event occurs , including the loss of ground communications and/ or the loss of a GPS signal, Petitioner’s
UAS have the ability to perform a pre

- co ordinated , predictable, automat ed flight

1 The MPTFOM and FOPM will be submitted separately and confidentially under 14 C.F.R. 11.35(b), as the manuals contain proprietary information that the applicant has not and will not share with others. The manuals contain operating conditions and procedures that are not available to the public and are protected from release under the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. §§ 552, et seq.October 1, 2014 Page 11

Buchalter Nemer Los Angeles • Irvine • San Francisco • Scottsdale www.buchalter.com maneuver and return to a predetermined location wit hin a designated security p erimeter for landing . The UAS further have the ability to abort a flight in the event of unpredicted obstacles or emergencies

. All flights will be terminated after a maximum of 30 minutes or with 25 % remaining battery power, whichever occurs first. Thus, good cause exists for granting Petitioner’s requested relief from 14 C.F.R. § 91.151(a) (setting forth fuel requirements for flight in VFR conditions). Petitioner’s UAS will be identified by serial number, registered in accordance with 14 C.F.R. Part 47, and have identification (N

- Number) markings in accordance with 14 C.F.R. Part 45, Subpart C. Markings will be as large as pra cticable. Regarding Petitioner’s requested relief from 14 C.F.R. § 91.121 (Altimeter Settings), Petitioner seeks such relief because Petitioner will not have a typical barometric altimeter onboard t he UAS. Instead, altitude information will be provided to the UAS PIC via a digitally encoded telemetric data feed, which downlinks from the aircraft to a ground

- based on

- screen display. The altitude information will be generated by equipment installed o nboard the UAS, using GPS triangulation, digitally encoded barometric altimeter, radio altimeter, or any combination thereof. Prior to each flight, a zero altitude initiation point will be established and confirmed for accuracy by the UAS
PIC. Thus, good cause exists for granting the requested relief from 14 C.F.R. § 91.121. Given the size, weight, speed, and limited operating area associated with the aircraft to be utilized by the applicant, an exemption from 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart HOctober 1, 2014 Page 12

Buchalter Nemer Los Angeles • Irvine • San Francisco • Scottsdale www.buchalter.com (Airworthiness C ertificates), subject to certain conditions and limitations, is warranted (if necessary) and meets the requirements for an equivalent level of safety under 14 C.F.R. Part 11 and Section 333. The UAS operated without an airworthiness certificate in the

res tricted environment and under the conditions and limitations proposed by Petitioner will be at least as safe, or safer, than a conventional aircraft (fixed wing or rotorcraft) operating with an airworthiness certificate issued under 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subp art H , and not subject to the proposed limitations and conditions. Petitioner wi ll strictly comply with safety and maintenance procedures included in all applicable UAS manufacturer’s instructions and operating manuals. To the extent such information is not included in the guidelines developed by the manufacturers,
P etitioners wi ll develop and document maintenance, overhaul, replacement, and inspection requirements, procedures to document and maintain maintenance records with regard to Petitioner’s UAS, a nd UAS technician qualification criteria. Petitioner’s operations manuals will include maintenance requirements for Petitioner’s UAS, including “on

- condition” maintenance and modifications. In light of these mitigating factors, exemptions from 14 C.F.R. §§ 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) and (2), and 91.417(a) and (b) are warranted.
B. UAS Pilot in Command Petitioner’s UAS pilot in command (PIC) shall have passed the FAA ground school examination and shall hold at least a third

- class medical certificat e but shall not beOctober 1, 2014 Page 13

Buchalter Nemer Los Angeles • Irvine • San Francisco • Scottsdale www.buchalter.com required to hold a current pilot’s license. Since there are no standards for either private or commercial UAS pilot certificates, knowledge of airspace regulations acquired from FAA ground school and dexterity in the control and operati on of the UAS acquired from actual operation of the aircraft will be the most important factors in establishing an equivalent level of safety. According to the FAA, “the FAA considers the overriding safety factor for the limited operations proposed by the petitioner to be the airmanship skills acquired through UAS

- specific flight cycles, flight time, and specific make and model experience, culminating in verification through testing.” See Exemption No. 11062, Regulatory Docket No. FAA

- 2014

- 0352, at p. 18. With those factors in mind, Petitioner’s UAS PIC shall be required to meet several conditions and limitations as outlined in the FOPM and MPTFOM , including the following:

• The UAS PIC will have accumulated and logged a minimum of 200 flight cycles and 25 hours of total time as a UAS rotorcraft pilot and at least 10 hours logged as a UAS pilot with a similar UAS type (single blade or multirotor).

• The UAS PIC will have accumulated and logged a minimum of five hours of flight time with the specific make and model of the UAS to be utilized for operations under the exemption and three take

- offs and landings in the preceding 90 days.October 1, 2014 Page 14

Buchalter Nemer Los Angeles • Irvine • San Francisco • Scottsdale www.buchalter.com • The UAS PIC will have successfully completed the qualification p rocess as specified in the operations manuals , to include a knowledge and skill test. 2 Regarding Petitioner’s requested relief from 14 C.F.R. § 91.7(a) , it is Petitioner’s understanding that Petitioner’s UAS will not require an airworthiness certificate in accordance with 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H, and that exemption from 14 C.F.R. § 91.7(a) is therefore unnecessary. To the extent such an exemption is deemed necessary, Petitioner asserts that it should be granted in light of the safety procedures propos ed herein. In accordance with the pertinent part of 14 C.F.R. § 91.7(b), the operator in command of Petitioner’s UAS shall be responsible for determining whether the aircraft is
in a safe condition for f light. Petitioner’s manuals for maintenance and ope rations shall include safety checklists to be used by the operator in command prior to each flight. Regarding Petitioner’s requested relief from 14 C.F.R. § 91.9(b)(2) (Civil aircraft flight manual, marking, and placard requirements and § 91.203(a) and (b) , ( Civil aircraft: certifications required), it is Petitioner’s understanding that relief from these regulations is no longer necessary in light of the FAA Memorandum “Interpretation regarding whether certain required documents may be kept at an unmanned a ircraft’s control

2 Prior to operating, the PIC will be required to pass the knowledge and airmanship test qualifications developed by Petitioner for the UAS (which wi ll be included in Petitioner’s operations manuals). There are no established practical tes t standards that support a jurisdictional FAA FSDO (“Flight Standards District Office”) evaluation and approval of company designated examiners. Petitioner will conduct these tests in accordance with its operations manuals. Given the constraints of the p roposed operations, this procedure for testing will not adversely affect the safety of the NAS.October 1, 2014 Page 15

Buchalter Nemer Los Angeles • Irvine • San Francisco • Scottsdale www.buchalter.com station,” dated August 8, 2014. To the extent the FAA deems an exemption from this section necessary for Petitioner’s proposed operations, such exemption should be granted in light of the mitigating fact that Petitioner will maintain the documents required under 14 C.F.R. §§ 91.9 and 91.203 at the UAS ground control station during flights. Additionally, 100% of Petitioner’s operations will utilize a visual observer (“VO”). The VO may be used to satisfy the VLOS requirement a s long as the PIC always maintains VLOS capability. The VO and the PIC will be able to communicate verbally at all times during operational flights

. Regarding Petitioner’s requested relief from 14 C.F.R. § 91.103(b)(1), Petitioner will comply with the oth er applicable procedures and requirements stated in § 91.103(a) and (b). Specifically, the PIC will take all actions including reviewing weather, flight battery requirements, aircraft performance data, and landing and takeoff distances before initiation o f a flight. The PIC will also account for all relevant site

- specific conditions in their preflight procedures. Risks presented by sun glare will be mitigated by the PIC’s and VO’s ability to see other air traffic and initiate a return

- to

- home sequence if needed

. The PIC’s UAS operation will be limited to a unique and restricted environment. Given the (1) separation of closed

- set filming operations from other manned operations, (2) parallel nature of aeronautical knowledge requirements incumbent in the FA A ground school exam and the process of obtaining a private pilot’s license, and ( 3) the proposed UAS airmanship skills of Petitioner’s PICs, the additional manned airmanship experienceOctober 1, 2014 Page 16

Buchalter Nemer Los Angeles • Irvine • San Francisco • Scottsdale www.buchalter.com of a private pilot would not correlate to the airmanship skills necess ary for Petitioner’s proposed unmanned operat ions. Thus, Petitioner’s request for relief from 14 C.F.R. § 61.113(a) and (b) and § 61.133(a) should be granted.
C. Operating Parameters of Petitioner’s UAS Petitioner’s UAS operations will be conducted within a sterile environment of closed

- set filming. In this controlled environment, Petitioner’s operations will remain within VLOS of the PIC and VO , below 400 feet AGL , and at speeds below 50 knots

. Only pa rticipating persons will be permitted within the operating area. 3 Consistent with the relief typically provided to manned operations under FAA Order 8900.1, Volume 3, Chapter 8, Section 1, Petitioner requests relief from 14 C.F.R. § 91.119(c) with respect to those participating persons, vehicles, and structures directly involved in the performance of the actual filming. Regarding distance from participating persons, the operations manuals set forth safety factors for authorized and consenting production pe rsonnel . Because those procedures are specific to participating persons, no further FSDO or aviation safety inspector approval is necessary for reductions to the distances specified in Petitioner’s manuals. Regarding the distance from nonparticipating per sons, Petitioner will ensure that no persons are allowed within 500 feet of the operating area except those consenting to

3 Pursuant to Order 8900.1 V3, C 8, S1, “participating persons” includes all persons associated with the filming production. Participating persons will be briefed on the potential risk of the proposed flight operations and must acknowledge and accept those risks prior to participation.October 1, 2014 Page 17

Buchalter Nemer Los Angeles • Irvine • San Francisco • Scottsdale www.buchalter.com be involved and necessary for the filming production, with the possibility of reducing this distance to no less than 200 feet if it wo uld not adversely affect safety and the Administrator has approved it. This is consistent with FAA Order 8900.1, V3, C8, S1. Petitioner will not conduct UAS operations within 5 nautical miles of the geographic center of a non

- towered airport unless a lett er of agreement with that airport’s management is obtained and the operation is conduct ed in accordance with a Notice to Airmen (“NOTAM”) . Additionally, Petitioner will not operate in Class B, C, or D airspace without written approval from the FAA. Nor wi ll Petitioner operate the UAS less than 500 feet below or less than 2,000 feet horizontally from a cloud or when visibility is less than 3 statute miles from the PIC. Petitioner’s UAS will remain clear and yield the right of way to all manned operations and activities at all times (including, but not limited to, ultralight vehicles, parachute activities, parasailing activities, and hangliders). Although Petitioner seeks to comply with the waiver process as described in FAA Order 8900.1, Volume 3, Chapter 8, Section 1 (Issue a Certificate of Waiver for Motion Picture and Television Filming), the current section of Order 8900.1 has specific processes that preclude a jurisdictional FAA FSD O from issuing the required Certificate of Waiver, because the section did not originally provide for UAS operations. Thus, Petitioner seeks exemption from the applicable regulations normally waived during that process. Petitioner proposes that the FAA i nclude the required notifications andOctober 1, 2014 Page 18

Buchalter Nemer Los Angeles • Irvine • San Francisco • Scottsdale www.buchalter.com coordination with jurisdictional FSDOs through the conditions and limitations accompanying the requested exemption, and that the exemption sought herein will take the place of the Certificate of Waiver normally issued by a jurisdictional FSDO under 8900.1 . Under this rubric, Petitioner will notify every FSDO with jurisdiction over the area that Petitioner plans to operate, just as with manned filming operations, and those FSDOs will have the ability to coordinate furth er conditions and limitations with the UAS Integration Office to address any local concerns. Petitioner will obtain an Air Traffic Organization (“ATO”) issued Certificate of Waiver or Authorization (“COA”) prior to conducting any operations under this gran t of exemption. In fulfilling its requirements under the COA, Petitioner will be required to request a NOTAM not more than 72 hours in advance, but not less than 48 hours prior to the operation.
D. The Requested Exemption Promotes the Public Interest
T he enhanced safety achieved by replacing significantly larger manned aircraft carrying crew and flammable fuel with small UAS carrying no passengers or crew and operated under the specific guidelines and procedures proposed by Petitioner gives the FAA good cause to find that the UAS operations enabled by the instant Petition are in the public interest. Moreover, a s the FAA has already recognized, “UAS provide an additional tool for the filmmaking industry, adding a greater degree of flexibility, whichOctober 1, 2014 Page 19

Buchalter Nemer Los Angeles • Irvine • San Francisco • Scottsdale www.buchalter.com supp lements the current capabilities offered by manned aircraft.” See Exemption No. 11062, Regulatory Docket No. FAA

- 0352, at p. 22.
VI. CONCLUSION For the foregoing reasons, the regulatory exemptions requested herein should be granted and Petitioner should be permitted to conduct small UAS operations for the purpose of closed

- set filming.
