Re: Exemption request under Section 333 ofthe FAA Reform Act and Part 11 ofthe Federal Aviation Regulations.

Dear Sir or Madam, I request an exemption from 91.7(a), 91.119, 91.121, 91.151(a), 91.405, 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(2) and 91.417(a) and (b) ofTitle 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14CFR) was granted in Exemption Numbers 11138, 11395, 11428 and 11434. Iwill operate a DJI Inspire 1, a UAS weighing less than 7 lbs. attakeoff, and can take photos and videos using the on board camera. The operations preformed by myselfwiththis UAS are to include but not limited to real estate photography, both residential and commercial, surveying timber stands-for forestry, event coverage, and artistic photos. The use ofUAS reduses the need for conventional aircraft in populated areas and will allow never before possible photos and videos to be taken safely and experienced by the public. Operations underthis exemption will be conducted as outlined in the proposed rule set in motion on 02/23/2015 in docket FAA-2015-0150. • Operational Limitations Visual line-of-sight (VLOS) only; the unmanned aircraft must remain within VLOS ofthe operatororvisual observer. • At all times the small unmanned aircraft must remain close enough to the operatorforthe operatorto be capable ofseeing the aircraftwith vision unaided by any device otherthan corrective lenses. • Small unmanned aircraft may notoperate over any persons notdirectly involved in the operation. • Daylight-only operations (official sunrise to official sunset, local time). • Mustyield right-of-way to otheraircraft, manned or unmanned.• May use visual observer (VO) but not required. • First-person view camera cannot satisfy "see-and-avoid" requirement but can be used as long as requirement is satisfied in otherways. • Maximum airspeed of 100 mph (87 knots). • Maximum altitude of500 feet above ground level. • Minimum weathervisibility of3 miles from control station. • No operations are allowed in Class A (18,000 feet 

### & above) airspace. • Operations in Class B, C, Dand Eairspace are allowed with the required ATC permission. • Operations in Class Gairspace are allowed withoutATC permission • No person may act as an operatororVO for morethan one unmanned aircraft operation atone time. • No careless or reckless operations. • Requires preflight inspection by the operator. • A person may not operate asmall unmanned aircraft if he orshe knows or has reason to know ofany physical or mental condition that would interfere with the safe operation ofasmall UAS. I request an exemption from 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(2) and 91.417(a) and (b) Maintenance Inspections since they only applyto aircraft with an airworthiness certificate. Iwill, however, perform a preflight inspection ofmy UAS before each flight as outlined in the operating documents. I request exemption from § 91.151. The Pilot in Command will abide by the following personal protocols and controls: • Operatorwill only operate in reasonably safe environmentsthat are strictly controlled, are awayfrom power lines, elevated lights and airports. .Operatorwill conduct extensive preflight inspections and protocols as outlined in the operating documents. • Operate the UAS below 500 feet and within a radius distance of 1500feet from the controllerwhile maintaining direct line ofsightvisual observation (VLOS). • Land the UAS before the manufacturer's recomended minimum battery level. • Use the UAS' GPS flight safety feature wherebythe aircraft raises to a predetermined safe altitude and then returns to point oftake offshould communication with the remote control operator is lost. • Contact respective airports and/or Flight Standard District Offices ifoperations will be within 5 miles to advise them ofmy estimated flight time, flight duration, elevation offlight and other pertinent information. • Have procedures in place to abort flights in the event ofsafety breaches or potential danger. 91.7(a) prohibits the operation ofan aircraftwithout an airworthiness certificate. I assert that since there is currently no certificate applicable to my operation, this regulation is inapplicable. 91.119 prescribes safe altitudesforthe operation ofcivil aircraft, but itallows helicoptersto be operated at loweraltitudes in certain conditions. Operator will not operate the UAS above the altitude of500 feet above ground level (AGL) and will also only operate in safe areas away from the public and traffic, thus providing a level ofsafety at least equivalentto or belowthose in relation to minimum safe altitudes. 91.121 Altimeter Settings is inapplicable since my UAS utilizes electronic GPS with a barometersensor.
