Pursuant to Section 333 of the FAA Modernization an d Reform Act of 2012 (the “Reform Act”) and 14 CFR Part 11, Craig Levine, operator of Georgia Dron e Services, LLC, hereby applies for an exemption from the listed Federal Aviation Regulations (“FARs ”) to allow commercial operation of designated UAS, provided such operations are conducted within and u nder the conditions outlined herein or as may be established by the FAA as required by Section 333. Commercial operation of an UAS, as described herein, which are equipped with camera(s) and senso rs, would provide professional services in the following areas: 1. Aerial photography and/or video for public and/o r private use including real estate, architecture, land surveying, engineering and other related profession al activities. 2. Aerial video and/or photography for public and/o r private use including television, public events, cinematography and newsgathering. 3. Aerial inspection/photography of residential/com mercial structures under contract with the owners or local government authority. 4. Aerial inspection/photography of residential/com mercial utility infrastructure including but not limited to electrical power lines, wind turbines an d cell towers.5. Aerial video/photography or providing live video feed to assist with search and rescue operations i n

cases of an emergency or natural disaster only when the local authorities or government has requested it by contract or donation. 6. Training to persons individually or belonging to both private and/or public organizations to increa se awareness and improve safety for current and future UAS operations within the NAS. As described fully below, the requested exemption w ould permit the operation of designated UAS as set forth in this document under controlled conditions in the NAS that would be a) limited b) controlled c ) predetermined and d) safe. Approval of this exempti on would increase public awareness of UAS operations and enhance safety to aid in fulfilling the Secretary of Transportation’s (the FAA Administrator’s) responsibilities to “....establish requirements for the safe operation of such aircra ft systems in the national airspace system.” I plan to operate a UAS, the DJI PHANTOM 2 Vision P lus which is comprised of an unmanned aircraft (UA or Phantom 2 Vison Plus) and a transportable ground station. The Phantom 2 Vision Plus is referred to as a quad-copter with a maximum gross weight of about 3 pounds. It is equipped with four rotors that are driven by electric motors powered by batteries. The UA has a maximum airspeed of 16 m/s. I also plan to operate a UAS, the DJI PHANTOM 3 Pro fessional which is comprised of an unmanned aircraft (UA or Phantom 3) and a transportable grou nd station. The Phantom 3 is referred to as a quadcopter with a maximum gross weight of about 3 pound s. It is equipped with four rotors that are driven by electric motors powered by batteries. The UA has a maximum airspeed of 16 m/s. Additionally, I plan to operate a UAS, the DJI Ins pire 1 which is comprised of an unmanned aircraft ( UA or Inspire 1) and a transportable ground station. T he Inspire 1 is referred to as a quad-copter with a maximum gross weight of about 6.5 pounds. It is equ ipped with four rotors that are driven by electric motors powered by batteries. The UA has a maximum a irspeed of 22 m/s. Also, given the small size of the UAS’s involved an d the restricted controlled environment within whic h they will operate, the applicant fits within that z one of safety (an equivalent level of safety) in wh ich Congress envisioned that the FAA must, by exemption , allow commercial operations of UASs to commence immediately. Also due to the size of the U ASs and the controlled areas in which the relevant UASs will operate, approval of the application pres ents no national security issue. Given the followin g, the grant of the requested exemptions is clearly in the public interest: Craig Levine proposes that th e exemption requested herein apply to civil aircraft that have the characteristics and that operate with the limitations listed herein. These limitations provid e for an exceptional level of safety to operations. These limitations and conditions to which Craig Levine ag rees to be bound when conducting commercial operations under an FAA issued exemption including: 1. The UAS will weigh less than 55 lbs. 2. Flights will be operated within line of sight of operator. 3. Maximum total flight time for each operational f light will be 30 minutes.4. Flights will be terminated at 15% battery power reserve.

4. Flights will be operated at an altitude of no mo re than 400 feet AGL 5. UAS operator will be trained and certified in th e proper safety and operations of the UAS. 6. The UAS will only operate within a controlled ar ea as defined in the Procedures. 7. The operator will post advisor notice around the controlled area. 8. The operator will have been trained in operation of UAS generally and received up-to-date information on the particular UAS to be operated as required.

9. If the UAS loses communications or loses its GPS signal, the UAS will have capability to return to a predetermined location within the Security Perimeter a nd land. 10. The UAS will have the capability to abort a fli ght in case of unpredicted obstacles or emergencies

. Accordingly, the applicant respectfully requests th at the FAA grant the requested exemption and are prepared to modify or amend any part of this reques t to satisfy the need for an equivalent level of safety. We look forward to working with your office . Please contact us at any time if additional information or clarifications are needed.
