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	env ironment	 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	 UAS	 to	 be	 operated	 her eunder	 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	and designated	area.	Unlike	other civil	aircraft,	operations	under	this	exe mption	will	be	tightly	controlled	and	monitored	by	both	the	operator	and	under the	requirements	and	in	compliance	with	local	public	safety	requirements.	These	safety	enhancements	provide	a	greater degree	 of	 safety	 to	 the	 public	 and	 property	 owners	 than	 con ventional	 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	its	size,	spee d	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	ca pital	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,	cockp it,	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	the	cabin,	cockpit	or	pilot	station	on	which	the	word	“Experimental”	can	be	placed.	Given	the	size	of	the UAS,	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	UAS	marked	on	its	fuselage	as	required	by	§45.29 (f)	where	the	pilot,	observer	and	others	working	with	the	UAS	will	see	the	identification	of	the	UAS	as	“Experimen tal.”2179	N	Powerline	Road	Ste	1	Pompano	Beach	FL	33069 Tel	+1	786	342	9400

- Email:	info@tecnomedia.tv 14	C.F.R.	§	61.113	(a)	and	(b):	Private	Pilot	Privileges	and	Limitations:	Pilot	in	Command.

Pursuant	to	14	CFR	61.113	(a)	&	(b),	no	person	who	holds	a	private	pilot	certificate	may	act	as	a	pilot	in command	of	an aircraft	that	is	carrying	passenger s	or	property	for	compensat ion	or	hire.	Tecnomedia	&	Satellite	Services	LLC .	may	achieve an	equivalent	level	of	safety	as	achieved	by	current	Regulations	because	the	applicant’s	UAS	do	not	carry	any	pilots	or passengers	 nor	 property.	 The	 risks	 attendant	 to	 the	 operation	 o f	 UAS	 is	 far	 less	 than	 the	 risk	 levels	 inherent	 in	 the
commercial	ac tivities	outlined	in	14	CFR	61.

14	C.F.R.	§91.7(a):	Civil	Aircraft	Airworthiness.

The	regulation	requires	that	no	person	may	operate	a	civil	aircraft	unl ess	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	for	maintenance	a nd	use	of	safety	check	lists	prior	to	each flight	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	approv ed airplane or	Rotorcraft	Flight	Manual,	approved	manual	material,	markings,	and	placards,	or	any	combination	thereof.	The UAS,	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	o n	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	UAS
will	have	immediate	access	to it.

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	w ill	be	needed.	The	PIC	will	take	all actions	as	stated	in	the	FOM	in	Section	4	under	Normal	Procedures	including	but	not	limited	to	reviewing	weather,	flight battery	requirements,	landing	and	takeoff	distances	and	aircraft	performance	data	before	initiatio n	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.	UAS and	remotely	piloted	aircraft,	by	their	design do	not	have	fully	functional	dual	controls.2179	N	Powerline	Road	Ste	1	Pompano	Beach	FL	33069 Tel	+1	786	342	9400

- Email:	info@tecnomedia.tv 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	fl ight	training	without	fully	functional	dual	controls	for	a	number of	aircraft	and	for	flight	instruction	in	experimental	aircraft.	The	equivalent	level	of	safety	provided	by	the	fact	that	nei ther a	pilot	nor	passengers	will	be	carried	in	the	aircraft	and	b y	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	operat ed at	less	than	the	minimums	prescribed,	provide d	the	person	operating	the	helicopter	complies	with	any	route	or	altitudes prescribed	 for	helicopters	by	 the	FAA.	As	 this	exemption	is	 for	a	UAS	 that	is	a	helicopter	and	 the	exemption	 requests authority	to	operate	at	altitudes	up	to	400	AGL,	or	not	more	th an	200	above	an	elevated	platform	from	which	filming	is planned,	an	exemption	may	be	needed	to	allow	such	operations.	As	set	forth	herein,	the	UAS	will	never	operate	at	higher than	400	AGL	with	the	exception	that	in	circumstances	where	the	UAS	is	used	to	s urvey	or	photograph	a	structure	whose height	exceeds	400	feet	AGL,	the	UAS	will	not	be	operated	more	than	200	feet	above	the	highest	point	on	the	structure. It	will	however	be	operated	in	a	restricted	area	with	security	perimeter,	where	buildings	and	peopl e	will	not	be	exposed to	operations	without	their	pre

- obtained	consent. The	equivalent	level	of	safety	will	be	achieved	given	the	size,	weight, 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	filming	activity,	all affected	individuals	will	be	aware	of	the	planned	flight	operations.	Compared	to	flight	operations	with	aircraft	or	ro torcraft weighting	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 addition, the	low

- altitude	operations	of	the	UAS	will	ensure	separation	between	these	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	operat ing	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 UAS	may	not	have	a	barometric	altimeter,	but	instea d	a	GPS	altitude	read	out,	an	exemption	may	be	needed.	An	equivalent level	of	safety	will	be	achieved	by	the	operator,	pursuant	to	the	safety	check	list	and	live	flight	data	monitoring,	confirmi ng 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	le ast	30	minutes;	or	(2)	At	night,	to	fly	after	that	for	at

- Email:	info@tecnomedia.tv The	 battery	 powering	 t he	UAS	 provides	approximately	 30 minutes	 of	 powered	 flight.	To	meet	 the	 30	minute	 reserve requirement	in	14	CFR	§91.151,	UAS	flights	would	be	limited	to	app roximately	10	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	twilight	VFR	conditions	is	reasonable.	Applicant believes	that	an	exemption	 from	14	CFR §91.151(a)	falls	within	the	scope	of	prior	exemptions.	Operating	the	UAS,	in	a	tightly	controlled	area	where	only	people and	property	owners	or	official	representatives	who	have	signed	waivers	will	be	allowed,	with	l ess	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	UAS	flights	to	10	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	30	minutes	or 25%	of	battery	power

— whichever	happens	first.	This	restriction	would	be	more	than adequate	to	return	the	UAS	to	its planned	landing	zone	from	anywhere	in	its	limited	operating	area.

(b)	No	person	may	operate	a civil	aircraft	unless	the	airworthiness	certificate	required	by	paragraph	(a)	of	this	section	or	a	special	f light	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	p lace	to	carry certification	and	registration	documents	or	to	display	them	on	the	UAS. An	equivalent	level	of	safety	will	be	achieved	by keeping	these	documents	at	the	ground	control	point	where	the	pilot	flying	the	UAS	will	have	immediate	access	to	them,

t o	the	extent	they	are	applicable	to	the	UAS.

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	section	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.	An	eq uivalent	level	of	safety	will	be	achieved	because	 the	UAS	is	very	limited	in	size	and	will	carry	a	small payload	and	 operate	 only	in	 restricted	areas	 for	a	limited	 period	 of	 time.	If	mechanical	issues	arise	 the	UAS	 can	land immediately	and	will	be	operatin g	from	no	higher	than	400	feet	AGL.	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.	 An	 equivalent	 level	 of	 safety	 will	 be	 achieved	 because	 maintenance	 and inspections	will	 be	 performed	in	accordance	with	 the	UAS	Manufact urer's	User	Manual.	As	 provided	in	 the	FOM,	 the operator	will	ensure	that	the	UAS	is	in	working	order	prior	to	initiating	flight	and	perform	required	maintenance	needed.2179	N	Powerline	Road	Ste	1	Pompano	Beach	FL	33069 Tel	+1	786	342	9400
