Act ” and 14	C.F.R.	Part	11, Netjectives ,	LLC. respectfully	requests	an exception from	several provisions	of	Title	14	of	the	Code	o f	Federal	Regulations	(C.F.R)	to	permit	the	use	of	small unmanned	aerial	systems	(sUAS)	to	assist	in	the	evaluation	of	operation s	for	our	clients.		This request	is	motivated	by	the	marketing	need	for	aerial	photography	services	for	our	website

customers.

The	Unmanned	Aircraft	is	defined	as:

• Lightweight	(2.8lb)	DJI	Phantom 3	Professional	with	4k	Camera,	which	carries	the following	safety	equipment.

o On	board	safety	computer	with GPS	navigation	and	location	ability.

o On

- board	camera	that	has	ability	to	capture	still	images	as	well	as	high definition
video.

o Onboard	telemetry	system,	which	includes	live	alititude,	speed	and	distance
information.

Ground	station:

• Private	Pilot	(PIC)	in	operat ional	control	of	the	aircraft	controlling	with	a	2.4GHz	radio

transmitter /controller	operated	by	the	PIC.

• Visual	Observer	(VO)	who	is	visually	tracking the UA	while	it	is in	flight.

Requested	exemption would	support	a	commercial	certificate	of	authorization	to	use	the	above UAS	to	support	aerial	photography	and	video	of	real

- estate property,	specifically	ind ividual properties .		Flight	controlled	by	PIC	would	not	leave	property boundaries ,	nor	would	be	greater
than	200	feet	AGL.Page

The	regulations	from	which	the	exemption	is	requested	are	listed	below.

14	CFR	Part	21

– Airworthiness Certificates

– The	requirements	for	issuance	of airworthiness	certificates	as	required	by 14	CFR	91.203 Given	the	small	size	of	the	UA	and	the	safeguards	taken,	an	exemption	from	Part 21	Subpart	H	meets	the	requirements	of	an	equival ent	level	of	safety. In	addition the	PIC	will	perform	preflight	checks	to	ensure	airworthiness	of	UA.

14	CFR	45.23 ,	45.29

– Aircraft markings	and	Identification	Requirements

– When	marks	include	only	the	Roman	capital	letter	"N"	and	the	registration number	is	displayed	on	limited,	restricted	or	light

- sport	category	aircraft	or experimental	or	provisionally	certificated	aircraft,	the	operator	must	also	display on	that	aircraft	near	each	entrance	to	the	cabin,	cockpit,	or	pilot	station,	in
letters not	less	than	2	inches	nor	more	than	6	inches	high,	the	words	"limited,"
"restricted ,"	"light

- sport,	"experimental,"	or	"provisional,"	as	applicable

Netjectives	will	ensure	compliance	by	both	putting	the	UA	registration	number as	well	as	Experimental	on	its	UA	aircraft.

14	CFR	91.9

– Civil aircraft	flight	manual,	marking	and	placard

– prohibits	operation	of	U.S.

- registered	civil	aircraft	unless	there	is	available in	the	aircraft	a	current	approved	Airplane	or	Rotorcraft	Flight	Manual,	approved manual	material,	markings,	and placards,	or	any	combination	thereof.

All	operating	documents,	authorizations	and	exemptions	will	be	kep t	in	a	flight
binder accessible by	the	PIC	available	for	inspection.

14	CFR	61.113,	61.133

– Recreational,	Private	and	Commercial	Pilot Privilege and

Limitations

– Except	as	provided	in	paragraphs	(b)	through	(g)	of	this section,	no	person	who	holds	a	private	pilot	certificate	ma y	act	as	pilot	in command	of	an	aircraft	that	is	carrying	passengers	or	property	for	compensation or	hire;	nor	may	that	person,	for	compensation	or	hire,	act	as	pilot	in	command of an	aircraft.	(b)	A	private	pilot	may,	for	com pensation	or	hire,	act	as	pilot	in command	of	an	aircraft	in	connection	with	any	business	or	employment

Netjectives	will	employ	a	PIC	who	holds	at	minimum	a	private	pilo t	certificate	of any	category	or	class	and	a	valid	drivers	license.Page

- 14	CFR	91.109

– Flight	Instruction No	person	may	operate	a	civil	aircraft	(except	a	manned	free	balloon)	that	is being used	for	flight	instruction	unless	that	aircraft	has	fully	functioning	dual
controls.

The	UAS	in	the	exemption	request	do	not	have	the	ability	for	dual	controls, however	there	is	a	training	program	before	a	drone	pilot is	performing	flight operations.		Manufacturer	does	offer	flight	simulati on	mode	which	will	allow operators	to	build	experience	and	maintain	proficiency	in	event	conditions	are not	favorable	for	flight.		Training	sessions	will	be	conducted separately from flights	conducted	for	hire.

14	CFR 91.119

– Minimum	Safe Altitudes Except	when	necessary	for	takeoff	or	landing,	no	person	may	operate	an	aircraft below	the	following	altitudes:	(b)	Over	any	congested	area	of	a	city,	town,	or settlement,	or	over	any	open	air	assembly	of	persons,	an	al titude	of	1,000	feet above	the	highest	obstacle	within	a	horizontal	radius	of	2,000	feet	of	the	aircraft. (c)	Over	other	than	congested	areas.	An	altitude	of	500	feet	above	the	surface, except	over	open	water	or	sparsely	populated	areas.	In	those	cases,	th e	aircraft may	not	be	operated	closer	than	500	feet	to	any	person,	vessel,	vehicle,	or structure.	(d)	Helicopters,	powered	parachutes,	and	weight

- shift

- control	aircraft. If the	operation	is	conducted	without	hazard	to	persons	or	property	on	the surface

— (1 )	A	helicopter	may	be	operated	at	less	than	the	minimums	prescribed	in paragraph	(b)	or	(c)	of	this	section,	provided	each	person	operating	the	helicopter complies	with	any	routes	or	altitudes	specifically	prescribed	for	helicopters	by	the

FAA.

Netjectives	will	operate	the	UAS	at	200	fee t	AGL	or	below	for	operations	or	as
otherwise	noted	in	the	COA.

14	CFR 91.121

– Altimeter Settings Each	person operating	an	aircraft	shall	maintain	the	cruising	altitude	or	flight level	of	that aircraft,	as	the	case	may	be,	by	reference	to	an	altim eter	that	is	set, when	operating.

Phantom	UAS	are	equipped	with	Global	Positioning	System,	which	provide	real time	telemetry	data	to	the	pilot,	without	an	Altimeter	pr esent	on	the	drone.
The	visual observer in	combination	of	the	pilot	will	provide exemplary level	of safety	and	fail	safe,	should	the	electronics telemetry	systems fail	on	UAS.

14	CFR	91.151

– Fuel	Requirements	for	Flight	in	VFR	Conditions No	person	may	begin	a	flight	in	an	airplane	under	VFR	conditions	unless (considering	w ind	and	forecast	weather	conditions)	there	is	enough	fuel	to	fly	toPage

- the	first	point	of	intended	landing	and,	assuming	normal	cruising	speed

— (1) During	the	day,	to	fly	after	that	for	at	least	30	minutes;

The	total	flight	time	of	the	UAS	is	limited	to	24	minutes.		The	UAS	has	built	in battery	management	that	will	cause	the	drone	to	auto	return	to	home	in	the event	the	battery	is	low. The	PIC	will	achieve	a	level	of	safety	by	complying	with
the	DJI	low	batt ery	failsafe	system.

14 CFR	Subpart	E	(91.401 91.417) Maint en ance	Inspections

– (a)	Except	for	work	performed	in	accordance	with

9 1.411	and	91.413,	each	registered	owner	or	operator	shall	keep	the	following records	for	the	periods	specified	in	paragraph	(b)	of	this	section:	(paragraphs	1	(i

– iii),	2	(i

– vi));	(b)	The	owner	or	operator	shall	retain	the	following	records	for the	peri ods	prescribed:	(paragraphs	1

– 3) PIC	will	conduct	Pre/Post	flight	inspections	according	to	the	operations	manual
of	the drone	as	well	as	checking	all	available	flight	information	for	weather	and
current	NOTAMs	in	the	area.		All	mainten an c e	performed	on	drone	will	be documented	and	maintained	in	logbook	for	specified	aircraft.

Public	Interest

Throughout	this	document	we	have	expressed	the	safety	that	Netjectives	will	exercise	when operating	the	UAS	for	the	purposes	of	commercial	aerial	photography	of	real	estate	listings	and other	work	related	to	aerial	photography	and	how it	will	be	in	the	best	interest	of	the	public. UA	operations	will	allow	for	better	access	to	properties	and	will	give	people	an	enhanced	birds eye	view	of	a	property.		This	will	also	provide	an	economic	benefit	to	the	area	due	to	more
interest	in	the	real estate.		In addition, noise	pollution	and	other	items	will	be minimized	as
well.
