Petition for Exemption

Cameron Gallagher Videographer/Photographer I, Cameron Gallagher, 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 Phantom 3 Professional Quadcopter Aircraft, in order to provide services for profit to include aerial photography, aerial cinematography, aerial filming and photography for education, real estate, construction firms, agricultural modeling, crop monitoring operations, aerial mapping, special events to include but not limited to weddings, private or public parties/events, business advertising, promotional events, geological surveying, and environmental studies.
T he 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.
Pri or to each flight/operation of the UAV/UAS, I will conduct a Pre

- Flight Safety Inspection. All flights will be performed areas cleared for flight using www.skyvector.com to make sure we are in authorized airspace. Flights will not take place over densely p opulated 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. Any and all repairs will be performed only by the manufacturers authorized repair facilities/ providers. 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. Matt Vanacoro, Mr. Brian Punch, Mr. Jase W . Robak, Mr. Todd Thomas Drone Pics, Brandon Drivon, and Mr. Mike Lloyd Lloyd & Associates, many of whom have received Section 333 exemptions for comparable aircraft for similar operations. The specific sections of 14 C.F.R from which I am seeking exempti on are as follows: 14 C.F.R. Part 21; 14 C.F.R. 45.23(b); 14 C.F.R. 61.101(e)(4), & (5); 14 C.F.R. 61.113(a) & (b); 14 C.F.R. 61.133 (a); 14 C.F.R. 61.23(a) & (c); 14 C.F.R 91.7(a) 14 C.F.R. 91.9(b)(2); 14C.F.R. 91.109(a); 14 C.F.R. 91.119; 14 C.F.R. 91.12 1; 14 C.F.R. 91.151(a); 14 C.F.R. 91.203(a) & (b); 14 C.F.R. 91.405(a); 14 C.F.R. 91.407(a)(1); 14 C.F.R. 91.409(a)(2}; 14 C.F.R. 91.417(a) & (b).Please find the included User Manual, Quick Start Guide, Safety Guide, and Intelligent Flight
