Pursuant	to	Section	333	of	the	FAA	Modernization	and	Reform	Act	of	2012	(the	“Reform	Act”)	and 14

CFR	Part	11,	Safe	T	Professionals/Joshua	Martinez ,	operator	of	Unmanned Aircraft	Systems	(UAS),

hereby	applies	for an exemption	from	the	listed	Federal	Aviation	Regulations	(“FARs”)	to	allow

commercial	operation of	designated	UAS,	provided	such	operations	are	conducted	within	and	under

the	conditions outlined	herein	or	as	may be	established	by	the	FAA	as	required	by	Section 333.

Commercial	operation	of	an	UAS,	as	described	herein,	which	are	equipped	with camera(s)

and	sensors,	would	provide	professional	services	in	the	following areas:

1. Aerial	photography	and/or	video	for	publ ic	and/or	private	use	including	real estate,

architecture,	land	surveying,	engineering	and	other	related	professional activities.

2. Aerial	video	and/or	photography	for	public	and/or	private	use	including	television, public

events,	cinematography	and newsgath ering.

3. Aerial	inspection/photography	of	residential/commercial	structures	under	contract	with the

owners	or	local	government	authority filming	pre	and	post	construction

.

4. Aerial	inspection/photography	of	residential/commercial	utility	infrastructure	includi ng but

not	limited	to	electrical	power	lines,	wind	turbines	and	cell towers.

5. Aerial	video/photography	or	providing	live	video	feed	to	assist	with	search	and rescue

operations	in	cases	of	an	emergency	or	natural	disaster	only	when	the	local	authorities or

g overnment	has	requested	it	by	contract	or donation.

As	described	fully	below,	the	requested	exemption	would	permit	the	operation	of

designated	UAS	as	set	forth	in	this	document	under	controlled	conditions	in	the	NAS

that	would	be a)	limited	b)	controlled c)	predetermined	and	d)	safe.	Approval	of	this

exemption	would increase	public awareness of UAS operations and enhance safety to

aid in fulfilling the Secretary of Transportation’s	(the	FAA	Administrator’s)

responsibilities	to	“....establish requirements for	the	safe	operation	of	such	aircraft

systems	in	the	national	airspace system.”I	plan	to	operate	a	UAS,	the	DJI	PHANTOM	3	Professional that is	comprised	of	an	unmanned aircraft	(UA

or	Phantom	3)	and	a	transportable	ground	station.	The	Phantom	3	is	ref erred	to	as	a quad

- copter	with	a

maximum	gross	weight	of	about	3	pounds.	It	is	equipped	with	four	rotors	that	are	driven by	electric

motors	powered	by	batteries.	The	UA S has	a	maximum	airspeed	of	16 m/s.

Also,	given	the	small	size	of	the	UAS’s	involved	and the	restricted	controlled	environment within

which they will operate, the applicant fits within that zone of safety (an equivalent level of safety)

in	which	Congress	envisioned	that	the	FAA	must,	by	exemption,	allow	commercial	operations of

UASs	to	commen ce	immediately.	Also	due	to	the	size	of	the	UASs	and	the	controlled	areas in

which	the	relevant	UASs	will	operate,	approval	of	the	application	presents	no	national security

issue.	Given	the	following,	the	grant	of	the	requested	exemptions	is	clearly	in	the public interest:

Safe	T	Professionals/Joshua	Martinez proposes	that	the	exemption	requested	herein	apply	to	civil

aircraft	that	have the	characteristics and that operate with the limitations listed herein. These

limitations provide for an exceptional	leve l	of	safety	to	operations.	These	limitations	and

conditions	to	which Safe	T	Professionals/Joshua	Martinez agrees	to	be	bound	when	conducting

commercial	operations	under	an	FAA	issued exemption	including:

1. The	UAS	will	weigh	less	than	55 lbs.

2. Flights	will	b e	operated	within	line	of	sight	of operator.

3. Maximum	total	flight	time	for	each	operational	flight	will	be	30 minutes.

4. Flights	will	be	terminated	at	15%	battery	power reserve.

4. Flights	will	be	operated	at	an	altitude	of	no	more	than	400	feet AGL

5. UAS	operato r	will	be	trained	and	certified	in	the	proper	safety	and	operations	of	the UAS.

6. The	UAS	will	only	operate	within	a	controlled	area	as	defined	in	the Procedures.

7. The	operator	will	post	advisor	notice	around	the	controlled area.

8. The	operator	will	have	been	t rained	in	operation	of	UAS	generally	and	received up

- to

- date

information	on	the	particular	UAS	to	be	operated	as required.

9. If	the	UAS	loses	communications	or	loses	its	GPS	signal,	the	UAS	will	have	capability to

return	to	a	pre

- determined	location	within	t he	Security	Perimeter	and land.

10. The	UAS	will	have	the	capability	to	abort	a	flight	in	case	of	unpredicted	obstacles or

emergencies.

Accordingly,	the	applicant	respectfully	requests	that	the	FAA	grant	the	requested	exemption and

are	prepared	to	modify	or	a mend	any	part	of	this	request	to	satisfy	the	need	for	an equivalent

level	of	safety.	We	look	forward	to	working	with	your	office.	Please	contact	us	at	any	time if

additional	information	or	clarifications	are needed.

Sincerely,

Joshua	Martinez
