Paul,

Attached is a copy of the 8900.1, Vol 3, Chapter 8, Sec 1, document regarding motion picture and television

operations. You can find it online by going to: http://fsims.faa.gov and clicking on the link for 8900.1 contents on the

left hand side of the page.

The MPTOM is distinct from the FOPM, although there may be some overlap in the materials.

After reviewing, please determine if you will be submitting an MPTOM. If yes, please submit the MPTOM no later than

20 Feb 2015. If not, please notify Mr. Jake Troutman as soon as possible but not later than 20 Feb.

Thanks,

Rob

Subject: Videe This Petition2 Rob, thank you for your message.

Videe This integrated the provisions of its proposed Motion Picture and Television Flight Operations Manual into the

Flight Operations and Procedures Manual (which you have indicated you received) to promote ease of reference for UAS

operations personnel and uniformity in operations. In addition to conforming all UAS operations to the procedures

stated in the FOPM, Videe This will comply with any additional parameters set forth by the FAA in its prospective grant

of exemption.

If it is determined that a separately labeled Motion Picture and Television Flight Operations Manual is required prior to

commencing operations, Videe This would be willing to create the separate manual. However, a separate manual would

be heavily redundant with the FOPM since the requested exemption is directed entirely at film and television operations

and the FOPM was devised specifically to facilitate and govern those operations.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any additional questions or to discuss these matters further.

Best,

Paul Fraidenburgh
