U.S. Department of Transportation, Docket Operations West Building Ground Floor, Room w12-140 1200 New Jersey Avenue, S.E. Washington, DC 20590

Dear Madam or Sir:
Pursuant to Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (the Reform Act) and 14 C.F.R. Part 11, Craig Anthony Miller, develo per and operator of Small Unmaned Aircraft Systems (“UASs”) respectfully petitions for th e following:2 Purpose: I am requesting an exemption to provide a commercial service to private and commercial land owners who wish to obtain and capture aerial ph otos and videos of their property for the purpose of inspection, real estate listings, i nsurance property claims and as a marketing tool for their businesses.

Public Benefit: The benefit and service to the public is realized in several ap plications with the predominate application being building surveys. In the event a building is suspected of sustained damage of some type, through this exception, the UAS can provide aerial images that can be used by engineers and inspectors to ascertain the extent of the damage and document any repairs made for safety and wellbeing of the public.

Reasons why the exemption would not adversely affect safety, or how the exemption would provide a level of safety at least equal to the existing rule; B Having been a recreational Unmanned Aircraft System operator fo r three years I have over 300 hours of experience and I understand the importance of different uses and safety concerns regarding FAA regulated airspace and I would be a good candidate for exemption of Sec 333. The specific UAS, Iris Plus, I am seeking exemption wi th is one with many safety programs, including SAFE technology and GPS navigating. When fl ying for this commercial purpose I would be flying at a maximum altitude of 40 meters an d flying mostly vertically for the purposes of taking photos, decreasing the risk of any inter ference. My general knowledge of the aviation safety systems implemented by the FAA would be use d to ensure that safety would not be affected by my operations. I would not be flying near di saster areas, sporting events, or high traffic areas including airports, and I would pay attentio n to NOTAMS.

Flight Use & Restrictions: All flights will be flown using the UAS that is under 6 pounds, at or below 200 feet, during the daytime abovayikng Visual Flight Rules conditions, a nd I will operate them within a visual line of sight (VLOS), and will keep a distance from airp orts or heliports:3 i. five (5) nautical miles (NM) from an airport having an operatio nal control tower;

or ii. three (3) NM from an airport with a published instrument flight procedure, but not an operational tower; or
iii. two (2) NM from an airport without a published instrument fligh t procedure or an operational tower; or
iv. two (2) NM from a heliport with a published instrument flight p rocedure

I will be flying with the: (i) GPS enabled, (ii) home position locked, and (iii) following all other preflight safety regul ations and flight protocols dir ected and designed by the manufacture that do not conflict with FAA regulations. I Inten d to follow these suggested safety regulations • Always keep aircraft in sight and under co ntrol. • Always keep people and pets at least 35 feet (10 meters) away when the battery is conn ected. • Keep children out of the vicinity of this product at all times. • Always use fully charg ed batteries. • Always keep transmitter powered on while aircr aft is powered. • Always remo ve batteries before disassembly. • Always keep moving parts clean. • Always keep pa rts dry. • Always let parts cool after use before touching. • Always remove batteries after use. • Always have a first aid kit with you. • Always have an appropriate fire extinguisher with y ou. • Never operate aircraft with damaged wiring. • Never touch moving parts.

I have no intention on using this exemption outside the United States. I would greatly appreciate the award of an exemption and please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Respectfully submitted,

By: Craig Anthony Miller4
