I n making this determination , the Secretary is required to determi ne which types of UASs do not create a hazard to users of the NAS or the pub l i c or pose a threat to national securi ty in li ght of the following :

• The UAS ' s size, weight, speed , and operatio n al capabi l ity; • Operation of the UAS i n close proximity to airports and populated • Operation of the UAS within visual line of sight of the operator. Reform Act § 333 (a). Lastly, if the Secretary determines that such vehicles " may operate safely in the national airspace system, the Secretary shall establish requirements for the safe operation of such a i rcraft i n the national airspace syste m ."

The Federal Aviation Act expressly grants the FAA the author ity t o issue exemptions . T h i s statutory authori ty by its terms includes exempting civil ai rcraft, as the term is defined unde r §40 1 01 of the Act ,that i nc l udes sUASs, from the requirement that all ci v il aircraft must h ave a current airworthiness certificate . The Admi nistrator may grant an exempti on from a requirement of a regulatio n pres c ribed under subsection (a) or (b) of this sect i on or any sections 4470 2 -44716 of this t i t l e i f t h e Adm i nistrator finds the exemption in the public i nterest. 49 U .S. C . §4470 1 ( f) See a l so 49 USC §44711(a) ; 49 USC §44704 ; 14 CFR §91.203 (a) (1) . St e v e Jatal a 's sUASs are rotorcraft, we i ght i ng 55 or fewer l b s . i nclud i ng pay l oa d . They operate , under normal conditi ons at a speed of no more than 50 knots and ha v e the capability to hover , and move i n the vertical and horizontal pl ane simultaneously . They will operate only i n line of sight and will operate only withi n the sterile area described in the F li ght Safety Manua l , attached as Exhibit B (hereinafter "the Manua l " ) . Such operations w i ll i nsure t ha t the sUAS will " not create a hazard to users of the national airspace system or the pub li c ." 8 

# Given the small s ize of the sUASs i nvolved and the restricted sterile e n v ironment with i n which they will operate , the app l icant falls square l y with i n that zone of safety (an eq u i va l ent level of safety) in which Congress envisioned that the FAA must, by exemp ti on , allow commercial operations of UASs to commence immed i ately. A l so due to the s i ze o f the UASs and the restricted areas i n which the relevant sUASs will operate , approval of t he app l ication p resents no national security issue . Given the clear direction i n Section 33 3 of the Reform Act , the authority conta i ned i n the Federal Av i at i on Act, as amended; the stro ng equiva l ent lev e l of safety surrounding the proposed operations, and the significant public benefit, includ i ng enhanced safety, reduction i n environmental i mpacts , i ncluding reduced emissions associated with allowing UASs for commercial video operations , the grant of the requested exemptions is i n the pub l ic interest. Accordingly , the applicant respectfully requests that t h e FAA grant the requested exemption without delay . **AIRCRA FT**  **AN D**  **EQUIVALENT LEVEL**  **OF SA**  **FETY** The applicant proposes that the exempti on requested herein apply to civil airc raft that have the characteristics and that operate with the limitations listed here i n . These l i mitations prov i de for at least an equivalent or even h igher l evel of safety to operat i ons u nd e r the current regulatory structure because the proposed operations represe n t a safety enhancement t o the already safe commercial video filmi ng operations conducted wit h conventional aircraft.

These l imitations and conditions to which Steve Jatala agrees to be bound when conducting commerc i al operations under an FAA issued exemption i nc l ude: 1. The sUAS will weigh less than 55 lbs . 2. Flights will be operated within l ine of sight of a pilot and/or observer. 3. Max i mum total fl i

ght time for each operat i onal fl i ght w i ll be 20 minute s . F lights will be terminated at 25% battery power reserve should that occur prior to the 20 minute l imi t. 4. Flights will be operated at an altitude of no more than 400 feet AGL or, not more than 200 feet above an elevated pl atform from which fil ming i s pl anned. 5. Minimum crew for each operation will consist of the sUAS Pilot, the Visual Observer, and the Camera Operator. 6. sUAS pi l ot will be an FAA l i censed a i rman with at least a sport or recreat i on a l cert i ficate and a val i

I f a pi lot cert ificate ho lder other than the sUAS Pilot, who possess the necessary PIC qualifications, i s also present on set (i.e. the Aerial Coordinator), that person can also be designated as PIC . 8. The UAS will only operate within a confined "Sterile Area " as defined in the Manual. Section C of the Manual requires the establishment of a " Security Per imeter" for the flight operations area . 9. A briefing will be conducted in regard to the planned sUAS operations prior to each day's production activit i es. I t will be mandatory that all personnel who will be performing dut i es within the boundaries of the safety perimeter be present for this briefing . 10. The operator w i ll fi l e a FAA Form 7711 - 1 , or its equivalen t , as mod ified in light of the requested exemption, with the appropriate F l i g ht Standards D istr i c

The operator will obtain the consent of all persons involved in the fi lming and ensure that only consenting persons will be allowed withi n 100 feet of the fl ight operation, and this radius may be reduced to 30 feet based upon an equivalent le ve l of safety determination, as required by Section F of the Manual. With the advanced permission of the rele vant FSDO, operations at closer range can be approved. (See Section B i n the Manual Appendix B ) 12. The operator will submit a written Plan of Activities to the FSDO t hree days before the proposed shoot as required in Section C of the Manual. 13.

# (1)

# 5

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 l imited operating area associated with the aircraft to be utilized by the Applicant, an exempti on 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 a i rcraft 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, i n the restricted environment and under the condit i ons proposed will be at l east as safe, or safer, than a conventional aircraft (fixed wing or rotorcraft) operating with an airworthiness certificate without the restrictions and conditions proposed. The sUAS to be operated hereunder is less than 55 lb s . fully loaded, carries neither a pilot nor passenger, carries no explosive materi a l s or flammab l e l i quid fuels, and operates exclusively withi n a secured area as set out i n the Manual. Unl i ke other civil aircraft, operations under this exemption will be tightly controlled and monitored by both the operator, pursuant to the Manua l 's requ i rements, and under the requ i rements and i n compliance with local pub l ic safety requirements, to provide security for the area of operation as is now done with conventional filming. The FAA will have advance notice of all operations. These safety enhancements, which already apply to civil aircraft operated i n connection with motion pict u re and television production , provide a greater degree of safety to the public and property owners than convent i onal operat i ons conducted with airworthiness certificates issued under 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H . Last ly, applica t i o n of these same criter i a demonstrate s that there is no cred i b le threat to national security posed by the UAS, due to its size , speed of operation , location of operat i on, lack of exp l osive materia l s or fl ammable 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 i nclude only the Roman capital letter "N" and the registration number is displ ayed on li mited, restricted or light- sport category ai rcraft or experimental or provisionally certificated aircraft , the operator must also display on that aircraft near each entrance to the cab i n , cockpi t , or pi l ot stat i on, i n letters not less than 2 inches nor more than 6 i nches h ig h , the words " l i mite d ," "restr i cted," "light- sport , " "exper i menta l ," or "provisiona l , " as app l icable. Even though the UAS will have no ai rworthi ness certificate , an exemption may be needed as the UAS wil l have no entrance to the cabin, cockpit or pi l ot stati on on whi ch the word " Exper i menta l " can be place d . Given the size of the sUAV , two - i nch lett e r ing w ill be i mposs i b l e. The word " Exper i menta l " will be placed on the fuse l age i n comp l iance with §45 . 29 (f) .

# 6 The equivalent level of safety will be provided by having the sUAV marked on its fuselage as required by §45.29 (f) where the pilot, observer and others working with the sUAV will see the identification of the UAS as " Exper i mental . " The FAA has issued the follow i ng exemptions to this regulation to Exemptions Nos. 10700, 8738 , 10167 and 10167A. 

# 14 **C.F.R. §**  **61 .**  **113** (a) 

# & **(b): Private Pil**  **ot Privileges**  **and Limitations**  **: Pi**  **lot in**  **Command .** 

. Sections 61.113 (a) & (b) li mit private pilots to non - commercial operations. Because the UAS will not carry a pilot or passengers, the proposed operat i ons can ach i eve t he equiva l ent level of safety of current operations by requiring the PI C operating the aircraft to have a private pilot ' s l icense rath e r than a commercial p i lot's l icense to operate t h is small UAS . Un l i ke a conventional aircraft that carries the pilot and passengers , the sUAS is remotely controlled with no liv i ng thing on board. The area of operat i on is controlled and rest r icted, and all fligh t s are planned and coordinated in advance as set forth in the Manual. The level of safety provided by the requirements included in the Manual exceeds that provided by a single individual holding a commercial pi l ot's cert ificate operating a convent i onal a i rcraft. The r isks associated with the operation of the sUAS are so diminished from the level of risk associated with commerci al operations contemplated by Part 61 when drafted, that allowing operations of the sUAS as requested with a private pi l ot as the PIC exceeds the present level of safety ach i eved by 14 C.F.R. §61.113 (a) & (b). 

# 14 **C.F.R. §91**  **.7 (a):**  **C ivil**  **aircraft airworthiness.**  The regulation requires that no person may operate a civil aircraft un l ess it i s i n a i rworthy 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 and the requirements contained i n the Manual for maintenance and use of safety check lists pr ior to each fl ight, as set forth i n Sect i ons C 

# & D, an equ i valent level of safety will be prov i ded. 

# 14 **C.F .R.**  **§ 91.9**  **(b)** 

# (2) : **Civil Ai**  **rcraft Flight**  **Manual in**  **the Ai**  **rcraft .**  Secti on 91 . 9 (b) (2) provides : No person may operate a U.S . - registered ci vi l aircraft ... (2) F or which an A i rp l ane o r Rotorcraft Fl ight Manual i s not required by §2 1 .5 of t h is chapter, unless there is available in the ai rcraft a current approved airplane or Rotorcraft Flight Manual, approved manual material, markings, and placards , or any combination thereof. The sUAS, given its size and configuration has no ability or place to carry such a flight manual on the aircraft, not only because there i s no p i l ot on board, but because there is no room or capacity to carry such an item on the aircraft.

# 7

The equiva l ent level of safety will be ma i ntained by keep i ng the flight ma n u a l at t h e ground control poi nt where the pilot flying the sUAS will have immediate access t o it. T h e FAA has issued the following exemptions to th i s regulation : Exemption Nos . 86 0 7 , 8737 , 8738 , 9299 , 9299A, 9565 , 95658, 10167 , 10167A , 10602 , 32827 , and 10700 . **14 C**  **. F.R.**  **§ 91.103**  **: Preflight**  **action** This regul ation requires each pilot i n command to take certa i n actions before flight to i nsure · the safety of flight. As FAA approved rotorcraft flight manuals will n ot be pro vi ded for the a i rcraft an exempt i on will be neede d . An equiva l ent level of s afe t y w i ll be prov i ded as set forth in the Manual. The P I C w i ll take all actions i nc l ud i ng rev i ew i ng w eathe r , f l ight battery requirements , land i ng and takeoff distances and a i rcraft performa n ce data before i ni t iation of flight. **14 C.F.R.**  **§91 .**  **109 :**  **Flight instruction:**  Sect i on 91.103 prov i des that no person may operate a c i v i l aircra ft (except a manned free balloon) that is being used for flight i nstructi on unl ess that aircraf t has fully functi oning dual controls . sUASs and remotel y piloted aircraft, by their design do not have full y functional dua l controls. F l i ght control i

s accomplished through the use of a control box that co m m u n icates with the aircraft v ia rad i o commun i cat i on s . The FAA has appro ved exempt i ons for f l i ght tra i n i ng w ithout fully funct i onal dual contro l s for a number of aircraft and for flight instruction i n exper i m e n ta l a i rcraft. See Exemption No s . 5778K & 9862A. The equiva l ent level of s afety prov ided by the fact that neither a pilot nor passengers will be carri ed in the aircraft and by the size and speed of the aircraft . Safe simulati on and practi ce flight will be carri ed out i n controlled en vi ronments . All sim u lat i ons will be carr i ed out on a computer u s i ng the drone contro ls . Any p r act i ce fl y i ng w ill take p l ace i n a safe environmen t , with no risk to human l ife b e lo w . **14 C.F.R.**  **§91 .**  **119: Minimum**  **safe altitudes**  Section 91 . 119 establishes safe altitudes for operation of civi l aircraft. S e ction 9 1 .119 ( d) allows he l icopters to be operated at less than the min i mums prescribe d , prov ided t he p erson operating the hel icopter comp l ies w i th any route or al t i tudes prescribed for he l icopters by the FAA . As this exempti on is for a sUAS that is a helicopter and the exemption requests authority to operate at altitudes up to 400 AGL, or not more than 200 abo ve an elevated p l atform from which filming is planned, an exempti on may be needed to allow suc h operations . As set forth herein the UAS will never operate at higher than 400 AGL. It will however be operated in a restricted area with security perimeter, where build i ngs and people wi ll not be exposed to operations without their pre - obtained consent.

# 8

The equiva l ent level of safety will be achieved given the size, weigh t , speed of the UAS as well as the location where it is operated. No flight will be taken without the permiss i on of the property owner or local officials. Because of the advance notice to the property owner and part i cipants i n the filming activ i ty, all affected i ndiv i dua l s will be aware of the planned flight operations as set forth i n the Manual. Compared to flight operations w i th aircraft or rotorcraft we i ght i ng far more than the max i mum 551b s . proposed here i n and the lack of flammab l e fue l , any risk associated with these operations is far less than those presently presented with convent i onal aircraft operat i ng at or be l ow 500 AGL in the mov i e i ndustry. I n addition, the lowaltitude operations of the sUAS will ensure separation between these small - UAS operations and the operations of conventional aircraft that must comply with Section 91.119. **14 C.F.R.**  **§91.121 Al**  **timeter Settings**  This regul ation requires each person operating an ai rcraft to mai ntai n cruising altitude by reference to an altimeter that is set " . .. to the elevation of the departure a i rport or an appropriate al timeter setting available before departure ." As the sUAS may not have a barometric altimeter , but i nstead a GPS alti tude read out, an exemption may be needed . An equival ent level of safety wi ll be achieved by the operator , pursuant to the Manual and Safety Checklist , confirming the alt itude of the launch site shown on the GPS altitude i nd i cator before fl i g ht. **14 C**  **. F.R**  **. §**  **91 .1**  **51(a): Fuel**  **Requirements for**  **Flight in**  **VFR Conditions**  Section 91 . 151 (a) prohibits an i ndividual 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 least 30 m i nutes; or (2) At n i ght, to fly after that for at least 45 m i nutes ." The battery power i ng the sUAS prov i des approx i mately 25 minutes of powered fl ight. To meet the 30 minute reserve requirement i n 14 CFR §91 . 151, sUAS flights would be lim i ted to approx i mately 20 m i nutes i n lengt h . G iven the lim itat i ons on the UA S 's p r oposed fl i ght area and the location of its proposed operat i ons with i n a predeterm i ned area, a longer time frame for flight i n daylight or night VFR conditions is reasonable . Appl i cant believes that an exemption from 14 CFR §91.15 1 (a) fal ls with i n the scope of p rior exempti ons . See Exemption 10673 (allowing Lockheed Martin Corporation to operate w i thout compliance w i th FAR 91.151 (a) ) . Operating the small UA S , i n a t ig h t l y controlled area where only people and property owners or official representatives who have signed waivers will be allowed, with less than 30 minutes of reserve fuel , does not engender the type of risks that Section 9 1 . 15 1 (a) was intended to alle v iate given the size and speed of the small UAS . Additionally, limiting sUAS flights to 20 minutes woul d greatly reduce the uti l i ty fo r which the exemption will be granted. Appl i cant be l i

eves that an equivalent l evel of safety can be ac h ieved by li mit i ng fl i ghts to 20 minutes or 25% of battery power whic he ve r happens first. This restri ction would be more than

# 9

adequate to return the sUAS to its p lanned land i ng zone from anywhere i n its l i mited operat i ng area . Similar exempt i ons have been granted to other operat i on s , i nclud i ng Exemptions 2689 F , 5 745, 1 0673, and 10808. 

# 14 **C.F.R. §91.203**  (a) 

# and **(b): Carryi**  **ng Civil**  **Aircraft Certification**  **and Registration**  The regulation provides in pertinent part:

(a) Except as provided in § 9 1 .715, no person may operate a civil aircraft un l ess it has within it the follow i n g : (1) An appropriate and current airworthiness certificate . . . . (b) No person may operate a ci vil aircraft unless the ai rworthi ness certificate requ i red by paragraph (a) of this sect i on or a special flight author i zation issued under §91. 715 is displayed at the cabin or cockpit entrance so that it is l egible to passengers or crew . The UAS fully loaded weighs no more than 55 lbs and is operated w i thout an onboard pi l ot. As such, there is no ab i l i t y or p l ace to carry certification and reg i stration documents or to d i s p l ay them on the sUAS. An equivalent level of safety will be ach i eved by keep i ng these documents at the ground control point where the pilot flying the sUAS will have i mmediate access to them , to the extent they are app l icab l e to the sUAS. The FAA has issued numerous exempt i ons to t h is regulatio n . A representative sample of other exceptions includes Exemption Nos . 9565 , 9665, 9789 , 9789A, 9797, 9797A, 9816A, and 10700 .

# & **(b): Maintenance**  **Inspections** These regulations require that an aircraft operator or owner " shall have that aircraft i nspected 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 compl i ance with Part 43. Given that these section and Part 43 apply only to aircraft with an airworthi ness certificate , these sections will not apply to the applicant. Maintenance will be accomplished by the operator pursuant to the flight manual and operating handbook as referenced i n the Manual (See Sect i ons B, D and G) An equiva l ent level of safety w i ll be ach i eved because these small UASs are very limited i n size and will carry a small payload and operate only i n restr i cted areas for l i mited per i ods of t i m e . I f mechan i cal issues ar i se the UAS can land i mmed i at e ly and will be operati ng from no hi gher than 400 feet AGL. As provided i n the Manual , the operator will ensure that the UAS is in working order pr i or to i n i tiating flight , perform required maintenance , and keep a l og of any mai ntenance performed. Moreover, the

# 10

operator is the person most familiar with the aircraft and best suited to maintain the aircraft in an airworthy condition to prov i de the equivalent level of safety. Pursuant to 14 C.F.R. Part 11, the following summary is provi ded for publi cation in the Federal Regi ster, should it be determined that publi cation i s needed:

Applicant seeks an exemption from the following rules:

14 C.F.R. §21, subpart H; 14 C.F.R 45.23(b);14 C.F.R. §§ 61.113( a) & (b);91 . 7 (a); 91.9 (b) (2);91.103(b);91.109; 91.119; 91.121; 91.151(a);91.203(a) and (b); 91.405 (a); 91.407 (a) (1); 91.409 (a) (2); 91.409 (a) (2) and 91.417 (a) & (b) to operate commercially a small unmanned veh i cle (551bs or less) i n motion p i cture and televis i on operations. Approval of exemptions allowing commercial operations of sUASs i n the film industry will enhance safety by reducing risk. Conventional film operations, using jet or piston power aircraft, operate at extremely l ow altitudes just feet from the subject being filmed and in extreme proximity to people and structures; and present the risks associated with vehicles that weigh in the neighborhood of 4,000l bs., carrying large amounts of jet A or other fuel (140 gallons for jet helicopters shown below). Such aircraft must fly to and from the film location. In contrast, a sUAS weighing fewer than 55 lbs. and powered by batteries el i minates vi rtually all of that r isk given the reduced mass and l ack of combust i b le fuel carried on board . The sUAS is carried to the film set and not flown . The sUAS will carry no passengers or crew and, therefore, will not expose them to the risks associated with manned aircraft flights . The operation of small UASs, weight i ng less than 55 lbs., conducted in the strict conditions outlined above, will provide an equivalent level of safety supporting the grant of the exemptions requested herein, i nclud i ng exempting the app l icant from the requirements of Part 21 and allow i ng commercial operat i ons. These lightweight aircraft operate at slow speeds, close to the ground, and in a sterile environment and, as a result, are far safer than conventional operations conducted with turbine helicopters operating i n close proximity to the ground and people. **UA Ss**  **Details: See**  **Ap pendix**  **C** Safety Features:

• Emergency "Return - To - Home" o 

# At the beginning of each flight a home point is set. This home point is set i n accordance with the manual to allow for a safe takeoff and return. Should the p i lot's control lose signal with the UAS or manually request a return, the UAS will return to the start i ng point.

# 11

**Privacy** All flights will occur over private or controlled access property with the property owner' s pri or consent and knowledge . Fi l ming will be of people who have al so consented to being fil med or otherwise have agreed to be i n the area where filming will take place . Sati sfaction of the criteria provided in Secti on 333 of the Reform Act of 2012 -- size, weight, speed, operating capabilities, proximity to airports and popul ated areas and operation within visual line of sight and national security - provide more than adequate justification for the grant of the requested exemptions allowing commercial operation of applicant's UAS in the commercial vi deo production industry pursuant to the Manual appended hereto . Sincerely,

Steve Jatala
