Petition of Exemption Section 333

I, Jon Folbrecht on behalf of Heroes Memorial Foundation, Inc, hereby submit this petition for exemption under Section 333; FAA 

Modernization and Reform Act of 2012, Public Law 112-95 FEB. 14,2012, Section 333. I request this exemption in order to operate 

my UAV/UAS, DJI Phanotm 3 Quad copter Aircraft, in order to provide services to include aerial photography,

aerial cinematography, aerial filming and photography for real estate, special events to include but not limited to weddings, private

or public parties/events, business advertising, promotional events and funeral/memorial events.

Background Information

Heroes Memorial Foundation, Inc is a non-profit public charity founded in 2013 with the purpose to Honor our Heroes Better by 

Helping Emergency Responders Overcome Extreme Situations. We are always looking for new ways to generate revenue that provides 

funding for our charitable programs. With this exemption we can offer our services to real estate companies, brokers, appraisers, 

lenders and private parties which will give us the ability for them to obtain aerial visions, both motion and still, for evaluation 

purposes of their said requirements as needed. 

Aerial Operations Intention

Provide aerial views of residential property listed with the MLS or to be listed Provide aerial views of commercial properties

listed with the MLS or to be listed. To work directly with Real Estate Brokers, Lenders and Appraisers and all of the above

listed affiliates to obtain aerial views for valuations, marketing and overviews of topography. To work with private parties and

provide unique still and video of high quality for personal use if requested. The ability to provide aerial photo/video of Heroes 

funerals and memorial events. The ability to provide these services to other local businesses and individuals in my community will 

benefit them by opening up opportunities they otherwise did not have before. Traditional methods of aerial

photography/videography are simply not viable options for the average consumer as they are costly and involve greater risks to 

everyone involved; i.e. the use of larger aircraft carrying humans and flammable fuel. By utilizing the UAV/UAS the same results can 

be achieved with much safer conditions. Prior to each flight/operation of the UAV/UAS, we will conduct a Pre-Flight Safety

Inspection as require.

Only the manufacturers authorized repair facilities/ providers will perform any and all

repairs. Flights will not take place over densely populated areas or private property

without the owner's permission. The UAV/UAS will only be operated within visual line

of sight and will not be flown near airports or above 400 feet. The FAA can be confident

that operations of this UAV/UAS will achieve at least the equivalent or greater level of

safety.

The requests of this petition are similar to those of Mr. Todd Thomas Drone Pies, and

Mr. Mike Lloyd & Associates, all of who have received Section 333 exemptions for

comparable aircraft for similar operations.
