RE: Petition of JCeezer Marketing, LLC Exemption Pursuant to Section 333 of the

FAA Reform Act

Attn: To whom it may concern

Pursuant to Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (the Reform Act) and14 C.F.R. Part 11, JCeezer Marketing, LLC , operator of Small

U nmanned Aircraft Systems (sUASs) equipped to conduct aerial photography and videography, hereby applies for an exemption from the listed Federal Aviation Regulations ("FARs") to allow commercial operation of its sUASs, so long as such operations are conduc ted within and under the conditions outlined herein or as may be established by the FAA as required by Section 333.1

JCeezer Marketing, LLC has been in business since 2015. In recent history we have been bidding on jobs that have been bid by drone operato rs in our area and we find it difficult to compete with them. Therefore, we would like to add drone aircraft. As described more fully below, the requested exemption would permit the operation of small, unmanned and relatively inexpensive sUAS under control led conditions in airspace that is

1. Limited 2. Predetermined and 3. Controlled . The proposed exemption, if granted, would allow JCeezer Marketing, LLC to conduct commercial operations of small, unmanned aircraft systems ("UAS") meeting or exceeding all of t he operational and safety requirements Congress has set

forth in Section 333.

2. JCeezer Marketing, LLC is a media/technology company that plans to exploit the capabilities of Unmanned Aerial Systems to offer a multitude of services, including:

a. Aerial survey ing

b. Remote sensing

c. Agricultural support

d. Real Estate Photography

e. Aerial film making and photographyf. Construction site inspections and monitoring Wildlife and forestry monitoring

g. Educational and research operations

Statutory Authority Section 333, titled "Special Rules for Certain Unmanned Aircraft Systems", provides a mechanism for seeking expedited FAA authorization of safe civil UAS operations in the NAS. Section 333(a) states that the FAA "shall

determine if certain unmanned aircra ft systems may operate safely in the national airspace system before completion of the (comprehensive) plan and rule making required by section 332(b)(1) of this Act or the guidance required by section 334 of this Act." In Section 332(b)(1 ), Congress made it clear that Section 333 provides a mechanism for "expedited operation authorization" if several factors are met. Petitioner meets all requirements to permit FAA approval of commercial UAS operations.

The Petitioner Requests Relief From the Following:

Unmanned Aircraft System sUAVs are oftentimes seen as superior to helicopters due to the smaller devices cheaper equipment and personnel cost, reduced noise and as such, a much smaller

environ mental impact which promotes public safety.

We are petitioning for exemption to enable JCeezer Marketing, LLC to operate a DJI

Phantom 3 Professional equipped with a three

- axis gimbals and using High

- Def

cameras. This sUAV has a built

- in capability to limit the height it flies above the ground, to limit the radius of the distance it flies from the operator and to exclude it from Class 8, C and D airspa ce including a no

- fly zone feature. The DJI Phantom 3

Professional also has the fail safe function of the Naza

- M autopilot system which

means when the communication between the Main Controller and the transmitter is disconnected, the outputs of all command sticks from controller will go to the center position. If the GPS signal is good enough, the system will automatically trigger Return to Home and will land safely.The above specifications meet with the Model Aircraft Operating Standards as

set below:

 JC eezer Marketing, LLC will only operate its sUAS in line of sight of a pilot and/or observer and will operate at sites that are a 'sufficient distance' from populated areas within the sterile area described in the FOPM. Such operations will insure that the sUAS will "not create a hazard to users of the national airspace system or the public."

 When flying sUAV within 5 miles of an airport, airport operators will be notified and the operator will give the right of way to avoid flying in the proximity of full

- s cale aircraft.

 Maximum flight time for each operational flight will be 20 minutes.

 Flights will be terminated at 25% battery power reserve should that occur prior to the 20 minute limit.

 The sUAV will be programmed so that it will not be operated at an al titude of no more than 400 feet AGL, and not more than 200 feet above an elevated platform from which filming is planned.

 Minimum crew for each operation will consist of the sUAS Pilot, and Visual

Observer.

 The sUAS operated by the petitioner weighs less than 55 pounds, including

the payload (i.e. camera, lens, and gimbal).

 The sUAV will operate at speeds of no more than 50 knots, can hover, and can simultaneously move vertically and horizontally.

 Given the small size of the sUAS and the restricted sterile environment within which they will operate, our sUAS operations adhere to the Reform Act's safety requirements.

The UA, powered by batteries, is smaller, lighter and more maneuverable than larger aircraft running on combustible fuel, it operates at lower altitudes with no people on board and will thereby reduce current risk levels and thereby enhance safety and diminish the likelihood of death or serious bodily injury. With a small payload and maximum flight time of only 20 minutes, this is offers little or no risk to national security. Low level oblique photos and video from several angles are far more effective than ground based imagery for displaying the characteristics of large, complex properties with several buildings and large trees. The applicants in the past

have chartered 2

- seat full

- sized helicopters for this purpose, which has proven more costly than many potential clients have been able to afford. The benefits of reduced cost and improved quality of presentation from the UA will be valuable to and benefit many buyers and sellers of real property. Additionally, we request that we be allowed to use our system to benefit first responders nearby who might require assistance, including fire fighters, the police, the sheriff, et al., while remaining

s ubject to all limitations cited in this application as we do so. (a) No flight will be made with a Gross weight exceeding 55 pounds; (b)AII operations must occur in FAA Class G airspace at no more than 400 ft AGL, at an airspeed of no more than 25 knots an d no further than 1/8th NM from the PIC;(c)AII operations must utilize a visual observer (VO). The VO and PIC must be able

to communicate by voice at all times during a flight operation; (d)Operations will be restricted to flights over private property wi th the permission

of the property owner; (e) All required permits will be obtained from state and local government prior to operation; (f) JCeezer Marketing, LLC , will not be operate over densely populated areas; (g) JCeezer Marketing, LLC , will not be ope rating over any open

- air assembly of people; (h) JCeezer Marketing, LLC , will not be operating over heavily tracked roads; (i) JCeezer Marketing, LLC , will not be operating within 5 NM of an airport or heliport without prior permission.

We respectfully re quest exemption under Section 333 to enable JCeezer Marketing,

LLC , to operate efficient, limited, low

- risk commercial sUAV operations for the activities stated respecting at all times the space and privacy of citizens and property whilst keeping our skies safe.

Sincerely,

Jarad Wright JCeezer Marketing, LLCEXEMPTION REQUESTS AND EQUIVALENT LEVEL OF SAFETY

JCeezer Marketing, LLC requests an exemption from the followi ng regulations as well as any additional regulations that may technically apply to the operation of the sUAV System:

14 CFR Part 21, Airworthiness Certificates This part establishes the procedures for the issuance of an airworthiness certificate.

While the FAA continues to work to develop airworthiness standards for Unmanned Aerial Systems, we request an experimental certificate be issued for the DJI

Phantom 3 Professional under either or both of the following provisions: 21.191 Experimental certificates. Experimental certificates are issued for the following purposes: (a) Research and development. Testing new aircraft design concepts, new aircraft equipment, new aircraft installations, new aircraft operating techniques, or new

uses for aircraft. (b) Showing compliance with regulations. Conducting flight tests and other operations to show compliance with the airworthiness regulations including flights to show compliance for issuance of type and supplemental type certificates, flights to substantiate major design changes, and flights to show compliance with the

f unction and reliability requirements of the regulations. Since the experimental certificate can be used for commercial purposes such as market surveys, sales demonstrations, and customer crew training, we would expect that an experimental

certificate would permit our commercial purpose as well. The aircraft will not carry persons or property, will not carry fuel, and will only fly under strict operational requirements. Combined with the UA's lightweight , being constructed primarily of carbon fiber and plast ic, we propose that the UA will be at least as safe, if not safer, than a conventionally certificated aircraft performing the same mission. If an experimental airworthiness certificate is not appropriate for this application, then we request an exemption o f 14 CFR Part 21, Subpart H. and the requirement for

airworthiness certificate in general. Citing the equivalent level of safety outlined in the previous paragraph.

14 CFR 45.23 Display of marks; general and 45.29 Size of marks. These regulations provid e that each aircraft must display "N" and the aircraft's registration number in letters at least 3 inches high. Additionally, the aircraft must display the word "EXPERIMENTAL" in letters at least 2 inches high near the entrance to the cabin, cockpit, or pi lot station. The sUAV does not have an entrance in which the word "EXPERIMENTAL" can be placed, and may not have a registration number assigned to it by the FAA. We propose to achieve an equivalent level of safety by including the word "EXPERIMENTAL" in th e placard on the top of the aircraft, as shown above, where the PIC (Pilot In Control), VO (Visual Observer) and others in the vicinity of the aircraft while it is preparing for launch will be able to see the designation. Additionally, we feel that the per manent placard discussed in the previous paragraph will provide the aircraft's registration information at the ground station. Finally, we will display at the ground station a high contrast flag or

banner that contains the words "Unmanned Aircraft Ground S tation" in letters 3inches high or greater. Since the aircraft will operate within 3/4 NM of the ground

station, the banner should be visible to anyone that observes the aircraft and chooses to investigate its point of origin.

14 CFR 61.113 Private pilot privileges and limitations Pilot in Command and

61.133 Commercial pilot privileges and limitations. The regulation provides that no person that holds a Private Pilot certificate may act as pilot in Command of an aircraft for compensation or hire. Subparag raph (b) allows a private pilot to act as pilot in command of an aircraft in connection with any business or employment if: (1) The flight is only incidental to that business or employment; and (2) The aircraft does not carry passengers or property for

com pensation or hire. Our proposed operations require that the PIC must hold at least a Private Pilot Certificate issued by the FAA and since the aircraft cannot carry passengers or property, we feel we meet the intent of 61.113 Subparagraph (b) even though t he intent of this application is to conduct a business.

14 CFR 91.7 Prohibits the Operation of an aircraft without an airworthiness

certificate.

As no such certificate will be applicable in the form contemplated by the FARs, this Regulation is inapplicab le.

14 CFR 91.9 Civil aircraft flight manual, marking, and placard requirements. This regulation provides that no person may operate an aircraft unless a current, approved flight manual is in the aircraft. We assume that the intent of this requirement is to ensure that flight manual information is available to the aircrew while operating the aircraft. We request an exemption to this requirement since the aircraft is not only too small to carry documentation, the documentation would not

be available to the crew during flight operations. To obtain an equivalent level of safety and meet the intent of 91.9, we propose that a current, approved sUAS Flight Manual must be available to the crew at the ground station anytime the aircraft is in, or preparing for, fli ght.

14 CFR 91.109 Flight Instruction; Simulated instrument flight and certain flight tests The regulation states that "No person may operate a civil aircraft that is being used for flight instruction unless that aircraft has fully functioning dual

contro ls." The sUAS System ground based control station consists of a small hand

held radio transmitter and while it does not offer a second set of "controls", both the student and instructor can, and will, operate the single set of controls simultaneously. With both student and instructor having "hands

- on" the controls during flight, we feel that this technique meets the intent 91.109 and provides an equivalent level of safety.

91.119 Minimum safe altitudes: General. The regulation states that over sparsely p opulated areas the aircraft cannot be operated closer than 500 feet to any person, vessel, vehicle, or structure. Since the typical mission of the sUAS would be photography or survey of persons, vessels,vehicles or structures it would be necessary to oper ate closer than 500 feet to the

items listed. Operations will only be flown over property or persons where permission has been obtained and careful pre

- planned has been performed. The aircraft will be operated at a low altitude allowing, if a power unit fa ils, an emergency landing without undue hazard to persons or property on the surface. Therefore we maintain that due to the small size of the UAS, the hazard to persons, vehicles and structures is minimal compared to manned aircraft, which should be

consid ered in granting the exemption.

CFR 91.121 Altimeter settings. The regulation requires that aircraft shall maintain cruising altitudes by reference to an altimeter setting available within 100 NM of the aircraft. The sUAS will always fly

below 400 feet AGL and will not need to maintain cruising altitudes in order to prevent conflict with other aircraft. An Above Ground Level altimeter measurement above the takeoff point is transmitted via radio from the sUAS on

- board computer to the d1splay screen held b y the PIC, providing a constantly updated AGL readout.

14 CFR 91.151 Fuel requirements for flight in VFR conditions. The regulation provides that no person may begin a flight in an airplane under day

VFR conditions unless there is enough fuel to fly to t he first point of intended landing and to fly after that for at least 30 minutes. We feel the intention of this paragraph is to provide an energy reserve as a safety buffer for delays to landing. The sUAV is battery operated and the maximum duration of fli ght from a single battery charge is 18 minutes with a 20% reserve. Since the aircraft will never fly more than 1/8 NM from the point of intended landing, a full battery charge at launch will ensure that we meet the reserve energy requirement of this paragr aph. We request an exemption to the word "fuel" and ask for an equivalent interpretation with the word "energy".

14 CFR 91.203(a) & (b) Civil aircraft: Certifications required. The regulation provides that an airworthiness certificate, with the registra tion number assigned to the aircraft and a registration certificate must be aboard the aircraft. Additionally, subparagraph (b) provides that the airworthiness certificate be "displayed at the cabin or cockpit entrance so that it is legible to passengers o r crew." At a maximum gross weight of 5.3 pounds, the sUAS is too small to carry documentation, does not have an entrance, and is not capable of carrying passengers or crew. To obtain an equivalent level of safety and· meet the intent of 91.203, we propose that documents deemed appropriate for this aircraft by the FAA will be colocated with the crew at the ground control station and available for inspection upon request. In order to identify the aircraft, we propose that the

information found on airworthine ss and registration certificates be permanently affixed to the aircraft via placard containing the following information plus the word "EXPERIMENTAL" to satisfy the requirement of 14 CFR 45.23.

14 CFR Subpart E (91.401

- 91.417)

- Maintenance, Preventive M aintenance

, Alterations The regulation provides that the operator is primarily responsible formaintaining the aircraft in an airworthy condition, including compliance with part

39 and 43. Paragraphs 91.407 and 91.409 require that the aircraft be "approved for return to service by a person authorized under 43. 7" after maintenance and inspection. It is our intention that the PIC perform maintenance and inspection of the aircraft and "be authorized to approve the aircraft for return to service." The Page 10 PIC will ensure that the aircraft is in an airworthy condition prior to every flight and in addition conduct detailed inspections after every two hours of flight. Maintenance performed by the PIC is limited to repairing small cracks, replacing a propeller, checking electrical connections and updating software and firmware for

the on

- board computer. All other maintenance will be performed by the manufacturer or their designated repair facility. The PIC will document work performed in accordance with 91.417. We feel that due to the size, construction, and simplicity of the aircraft, the PIC can ensure an equivalent level of safety

Safety and Benefits of the UAS JCeezer Marketing, LLC will be using the UAS in a variety of applications that generally require ex pensive full

- size manned aircraft to complete. Small, light, unmanned aerial vehicles offer myriad benefits over the use of full

- sized manned aircraft for electric power line inspection, oil/gas pipeline inspection, advanced agriculture, film and still pho tography, just to name a few. Replacing significantly larger manned aircraft carrying crew and flammable fuel with small UAS carrying no passengers or crew creates a much greater margin of safety for the pilots and crew. By granting Toledo JCeezer Marketin g, LLC 's requested exemptions, the FAA will help Drive development of safe and successful commercial UAS operations and will advance the public knowledge base for such operations. JCeezer Marketing, LLC is committed to promoting the UAS research efforts of policymakers including the FAA, NASA, DOD and DARPA by sharing data from its commercial UAS operations and serving as a resource for future UAS research operations. Thus, the FAA has good cause to grant this Petition.

Conclusion As pointed out in this application, all the SUAs which our company would use, under authorization by the US DOT

- FAA, are small, light

- weight devices operated within the line of sight of the Pilot

- in

- Command (PIC), less than 400 feet above the ground and outside 5 miles from any airport, heliport, seaplane base, spaceport, or other location with aviation activities, unless the air traffic control authorities (ATC) have been notified and have authorized each flight within a radius of this distance. Page II All our SUAs have proven capability for controlled flight. They are devices offered for general sale on the market around the world and have often been used as Model

Aircraft in the USA. We a re certain that the studies conducted until now by the FAA, about Section 332,

Public Law 112

- 95, 2014, have already provided you with the assurances on the airworthiness of SUAs such as ours. For the foregoing reasons, the exemptions requested herein should be granted and Aerial Associates Photography should be permitted to conduct small UAS operations in accordance with its manuals and allother operating parameters deemed necessary and appropriate by the FAA. The

submission of this application and its contents is the best demonstration that indeed it is possible to pursue the authorization process so that some SUAs may be used for legitimate commercial activities and under reasonably safe conditions.
