Re: Request for Exemption under Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 

2012 and Part 11 of the Federal Aviation Regulations from Certain Provisions of 14 

C.F.R.

Altitude Productions, LLC

Dear Sir or Madam: 

Pursuant to Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (the Reform 

Act) and 14 C.F.R. Part 11, Antonelli Law files this petition for exemption on behalf of Altitude 

Productions, LLC, an operator of Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (“UAs”) for the commercial 

purposes of aerial photography and videography of commercial real estate. Specifically, 

petitioner seeks an exemption from the Federal Aviation Regulations (“FARs”) listed in 

Appendix A to allow commercial operation of its UAs, so long as such operations are conducted 

within and under the conditions outlined herein or as may be established by the FAA in a grant 

of this petition. This request is substantially similar to dozens of other aerial photography and 

videography petitions previously approved, and should be considered under the expedited 

summary grant procedure.

Approval of the exemption for petitioner will allow operation of the DJI Phantom 2 

Vision+ for the proposed uses in Class G airspace nationwide, or as otherwise prescribed by an 

Air Traffic Organization (ATO) issued COA. The UA covered by this petition have been 

previously approved for the proposed uses in the exemption grants identified in Section VII of 

the petition. The UA covered by this petition are small battery-powered craft, weighing no more

than 2.7 lbs. (1.24 kg), inclusive of battery and payload. Operation of the UAs under the strict 

conditions proposed below will provide an equivalent level of safety, as Congress intended, 

while still allowing commercial operations. Operations using this UA are far safer than 

conventional operations conducted with helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft that weigh thousands 

of pounds, carry large amounts of highly flammable fuel, and operate in close proximity to the 

ground, trees, infrastructure, and people. 

Congress directed the FAA to consider seven factors in deciding whether to approve 

Section 333 exemption petitions - size, weight, speed, operational capability, proximity to

I. Publishable Summary

Pursuant to 14 C.F.R. §11, the following summary is provided for publication in the 

Federal Register, should it be determined that publication is needed:

Petitioner seeks an exemption from the following rules: 

14 C.F.R 21(h); 14 C.F.R. 43.7; 14 C.F.R. 43.11; 14 C.F.R. 45.11; 14 C.F.R. 45.27; 14 C.F.R. 

45.29; 14 C.F.R. 91.7(a); 14 C.F.R. 91.9(b)(2); 14 C.F.R. 91.9(c); 14 C.F.R. 91.103(b)(2); 14 

C.F.R. 91.105; 14 C.F.R. 91.109; 14 C.F.R. 91.113(b); 14 C.F.R. 91.119 (c); 14 C.F.R. 91.121; 

14 C.F.R. 91.151(a); 14 C.F.R. 91.203(a) and (b); 14 C.F.R. 215; 14 C.F.R. 91.403; 14 C.F.R. 

91.405(a); 14 C.F.R. 91.407(a)(1); 14 C.F.R. 409(a)(1) and (2); and 14 C.F.R. 91.417(a) and (b) 

to operate commercially small unmanned aircraft systems (UAs) (2.7 lbs. or less).

Approval of the exemption requested by petitioner will allow commercial operation of 

the DJI Phantom 2 Vision+ for the purposes of aerial photography and videography of 

commercial real estate in Class G airspace nationwide, unless otherwise prescribed by an ATOissued COA. The requested exemption should be granted because operation of small UAs

weighing no more than 2.7 lbs. (1.24 kg), inclusive of battery and payload, conducted in the 

strict conditions outlined below, will provide an equivalent level of safety, while still allowing 

commercial operations. The lightweight aircraft covered by the exemption are far safer than 

conventional operations conducted with helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft weighing thousands 

of pounds and carrying large amounts of highly flammable fuel, and operating in close proximity 

to the ground and people. The seven factors Congress directed the FAA to consider when 

approving Section 333 exemption petitions - size, weight, speed, operational capability, 

proximity to airports, proximity to populated areas, and operation within visual line of sight –

each support the request. In particular, the aircraft are small, and will operate at slow speeds, and 

close to the ground. The substantial increase of safety and decrease of risk to human life, coupled 

with the low risk use of UAs to conduct these operations, weigh heavily in favor of granting the 

exemption.

7

and VO will have been trained in operation of UAs generally and received up-to-date 

information on the UAs to be operated pursuant to this grant. The PIC will have, at a minimum, a 

sport pilot license and either a third class medical certificate or a U.S. driver’s license.

The specific conditions of the proposed exemption that relate to the training and 

characteristics of the crew are numbers 3 and 6-9 in Section V below. Each has been adopted or 

imposed by the FAA in numerous previous grants of Section 333 exemption petitions.

For more information regarding the flight crew and training, please refer to:

Exhibit 1: Altitude Productions, LLC Flight Operations Manual, Section 5: Flight Training and 

Certification/Re-Certification.

Exhibit 6: Phantom Pilot Training Guide

C. Flight Conditions

The UAs will be used for aerial photography and videography of commercial real estate

in Class G airspace (unless otherwise prescribed by an ATO-issued COA) under 400 feet above 

ground level (“AGL”) and under controlled conditions over restricted property. Petitioner will 

work with the local FSDO when planning operations. Petitioner will only operate the UAs in 

visual meteorological conditions (VMC). The UA will at all times be no less than 500 feet below 

and no less than 2,000 feet horizontally from a cloud, and petitioner will not conduct operations 

unless visibility is at least 3 statute miles from the PIC. The flight crew will always make a 

safety assessment of the risk of every operation, and will only operate when it is determined that 

no hazards are present.

The specific conditions of the proposed exemption that relate to the flight conditions in 

which the UA will be operated are numbers 2, 4, 16, and 28-29 in Section V below. Each has 

been adopted or imposed by the FAA in numerous previous grants of Section 333 exemption 

petitions.

D. Flight Operations

The purpose of the UA flights for which exemption is requested will be for aerial 

photography and videography of commercial real estate. Every UA flight will use at minimum a 

two person flight crew: a PIC and a VO. 

The specific conditions of the proposed exemption that relate to flight operations are 

numbers 11-12, 17-25, and 32-34 in Section V below. Each has been accepted or imposed by the 

FAA in numerous previous grants of Section 333 exemption petitions.

For more information regarding flight operations, please refer to the following sections of

Exhibit 1: Altitude Productions, LLC Flight Operations Manual:

Section 4: Safety Management System

Section 6: sUAS Maintenance Procedures

Section 7: Flight Operations

IV. Aircraft and Equivalent Level of Safety

Petitioner proposes that the exemption apply to UAs that have the characteristics and that 
8

operate with the limitations proposed herein. These limitations provide for a level of safety at 

least equivalent to or higher than manned aircraft operations under the current regulatory 

structure. Section V below identifies the limitations and conditions to which petitioner agrees to 

be bound when conducting commercial operations under a grant of this petition. Appendix A 

contains a matrix connecting (i) the specific proposed condition with (ii) the FAR provision for 

which it provides an equivalent level of safety and (iii) one or more recent Section 333 

exemption grants in which the FAA recognized this equivalent level of safety.

Approval of the commercial operations outlined in this petition presents no national 

security issue. The PIC will possess, at minimum, a sport pilot’s certificate. Therefore he or she 

will have been subject to security screening by the Department of Homeland Security.

V. Proposed Conditions of the Exemption

1. The UAs, including battery and technical payload, will weigh no more than approximately 

2.7 lbs. (1.24 kg).

2. UA operations under this exemption will be limited to conducting operations for the purposes 

of aerial photography and videography of commercial real estate in Class G airspace 

nationwide, unless otherwise prescribed by an ATO-issued COA.

3. Flights will be operated within line of sight of a PIC and VO.

4. Flights will be operated at an altitude of no more than 400 feet AGL, as indicated by the 

procedures specified in the operating documents. All altitudes reported to ATC must be in 

feet AGL.

5. The UAs will not be flown at an indicated airspeed exceeding 29 knots. 

6. Minimum flight crew for each operation will consist of the UA PIC and a VO.

7. The PIC will possess at a minimum sport pilot license and either a third class medical 

certificate or a U.S. driver’s license.

8. The petitioner will not permit any PIC to operate the UA unless the PIC meets its 

qualification criteria and demonstrates the ability to safely operate the UAs in a manner 

consistent with how the UAs will be operated under this exemption, including evasive and 

emergency maneuvers and maintaining appropriate distances from persons, vessels, vehicles 

and structures. PIC qualification flight hours and currency will be logged in a manner 

consistent with 14 CFR §61.51(b). A record of the PIC training will be documented and 

made available upon request by the Administrator. Training operations will only be 

conducted during dedicated training sessions. During training, proficiency, and experiencebuilding flights, all persons not essential for flight operations will be considered 

nonparticipants, and the PIC will operate the UAs with appropriate distance from 

nonparticipants in accordance with 14 CFR § 91.119. 

9. The VO will not perform any other duties beyond assisting the PIC with seeing and avoiding 

other air traffic and other ground based obstacles/obstructions, and will not be permitted to 

operate the camera or other instruments.
9

10. The PIC will be designated before the flight and will not be allowed to transfer his or her 

designation for the duration of the flight. The PIC will ensure that the VO can perform the 

functions prescribed in these conditions and the operating documents.

11. A briefing will be conducted in regard to the planned UA operations prior to each day’s 

activities. It will be mandatory that all personnel who will be performing duties in connection 

with the operations be present for this briefing. 

12. Prior to each flight, the PIC will inspect the UA, including the Ground Control Station, to 

ensure it is in a condition for safe flight. If the inspection reveals a condition that affects the 

safe operation of the UAs, the PIC will not operate the UAs until the necessary maintenance 

has been performed and the UAs are found to be in a condition for safe flight. All 

maintenance and alterations will be properly documented in the aircraft records.

13. Petitioner will conduct a functional flight test on any UA that has undergone maintenance or 

alterations that affect the UA operation or flight characteristics, e.g. replacement of a flight 

critical component. The PIC who conducts the functional test flight will make an entry in the 

aircraft records. 

14. The petitioner will carry out its maintenance, inspections, and record keeping requirements, 

in accordance with the UA manufacturer’s aircraft/component, maintenance, overhaul, 

replacement, inspection, and life limit requirements set forth in the operating documents. 

Maintenance, inspection, alterations, and status of replacement/overhaul component parts 

will be noted in the aircraft records, including total time in service, description of work 

accomplished, and the signature of the authorized person returning the UA to service. The 

authorized person will make an entry in the aircraft record of the corrective action taken 

against discrepancies discovered between inspections.

15. The UAs will be operated within visual line of sight (VLOS) of the PIC and VO at all times. 

This requires the PIC to be able to use human vision unaided by any device other than 

corrective lenses. PIC and VO will at all times be able to communicate verbally. They will 

not be permitted to use electronic messaging or texting to communicate during flight 

operations. 

16. The PIC will not begin a flight unless (considering wind and forecast weather conditions) 

there is enough power to fly at normal cruising speed to the intended landing point and 

prepare to land with at least 25% battery power remaining.

17. Actual total flight time for each operational flight will result in no less than a 25% battery 

reserve.

18. The UAs will have the capability to abort a flight in case of unexpected obstacles or 

emergencies. 

19. The UA will be programmed so that if it loses communications or loses its GPS signal, it will 

return to a pre-determined location within the planned operating area and land or be 

recovered in accordance with the operating documents
10

20. If the UAs and their radio control link disconnect during flight, the system’s failsafe 

protection will be triggered and the multirotor will return to home and land automatically, 

rather than flying off uncontrollably or landing at an unknown location. 

21. The operating documents required under 14 CFR §§ 91.9 and 91.203 will be maintained and 

available to the PIC at the Ground Control Station of the UA any time the UA is operating. 

These documents will be made available to the Administrator or any law enforcement official 

upon request. If a discrepancy exists between the conditions and limitations in the exemption 

grant and the procedures outlined in the operating documents, the grant conditions and 

limitations will take precedence and will be followed. Otherwise, the petitioner will follow 

the procedures outlined in its operating documents. If it updates or revises its operating 

documents, it will present updated and revised documents to the Administrator upon request. 

If the petitioner determines that any update or revision would affect the basis upon which the 

FAA granted the exemption, then the Petitioner will petition for an amendment to the grant 

of exemption. 

22. Petitioner will obtain written and/or oral permission from the landowners/authorized agents 

of the landowners over which flights will be conducted.

23. Petitioner will obtain all required permissions and permits from territorial, state, county or 

city jurisdictions, including local law enforcement, fire, or other appropriate governmental 

agencies. 

24. UA operations will not be conducted during night, as defined in 14 CFR § 1.1. All operations 

will be conducted under visual meteorological conditions (VMC). Flights will not be 

conducted under special visual flight rules (SVFR). 

25. The petitioner will obtain an Air Traffic Organization (ATO) issued Certificate of Waiver or 

Authorization (COA) prior to conducting any operations under the grant of exemption. 

Petitioner will request a Notice to Airman (NOTAM) not more than 72 hours in advance, but 

not less than 24 hours prior to the operation. All operations will be conducted in accordance 

with airspace requirements in the ATO issued COA, including class of airspace, altitude level 

and potential transponder requirements. 

26. The UA will not be operated within 5 nautical miles of an airport reference point as denoted 

on a current FAA-published aeronautical chart unless a letter of agreement with that airport’s 

management has been obtained, and the operation is conducted in accordance with a 

NOTAM as required by the operator’s COA. Any letter of agreement with the airport 

management will be made available to the Administrator upon request. 

27. The UAs will not be operated less than 500 feet below, or less than 2,000 feet horizontally 

from, a cloud or when visibility is less than 3 statute miles from the PIC. 

28. All operations shall be conducted in Class G airspace or as otherwise prescribed in an ATO 

issued COA. 

29. All aircraft operated in accordance with this exemption will be identified by serial number, 

registered in accordance with 14 CFR part 47, and have identification (N-Number) markings 

in accordance with 14 CFR part 45, Subpart C. Markings will be as large as practicable. 
11

30. Before conducting operations, petitioner will ensure that the radio frequency spectrum used 

for operation and control of the UA complies with the Federal Communications Commission 

(FCC) or other appropriate government oversight agency requirements. 

31. The UA will remain clear and yield the right of way to all manned aviation operations and 

activities at all times. 

32. The UA will not be operated by the PIC from any moving device or vehicle. 

33. Petitioner will conduct all flight operations at least 500 feet from all nonparticipating 

persons, vessels, vehicles, and structures unless one of the following three conditions is met:

a. Barriers or structures are present that sufficiently protect nonparticipating persons from 

the UA and/or debris in the event of an accident. The petitioner will ensure that 

nonparticipating persons remain under such protection. If a situation arises where 

nonparticipating persons leave such protection and are within 500 feet of the UAs, the 

PIC will ensure that flight operations cease immediately.

b. The aircraft is operated near vessels, vehicles or structures where the owner/controller of 

such vessels, vehicles or structures has granted permission and the PIC has made a safety 

assessment of the risk of operating closer to those objects and determined that it does not 

present an undue hazard.

c. Operations nearer to the PIC, VO, operator trainees or essential persons do not present an 

undue hazard to those persons per § 91.119(a).

34. Petitioner will report any incident, accident, or flight operation that transgresses the lateral or 

vertical boundaries of the operational area as defined by the applicable COA to the FAA's 

UAS Integration Office (AFS-80) within 24 hours. Petitioner will report accidents to the 

National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) per instructions contained on the NTSB Web 

site: www.ntsb.gov. 

VI. Privacy

There is little concern that the proposed flights will cause invasions of privacy. All flights 

will occur over either (a) public rights of way where there is no expectation of privacy; or (b) 

over private property with permission of the landowner/authorized agent and consent of 

participating individuals.

If data collected is made available for public view, all images containing uninvolved 

persons will be blurred or blacked-out. No attempt will be made to identify any individuals 

filmed during the flights except in cases where they are trespassing upon or damaging customer 

property, or interfering with the petitioner’s or its customers’ operations.

For more information concerning Altitude Productions, LLC’s privacy policy, please 

refer to Exhibit 1: Altitude Productions, LLC Flight Operations Manual, Section 8: Privacy.

VII. Public Interest and Safety

The planned UA use will increase ground safety for aerial photography and videography 

of commercial real estate. This type of data collection has previously been performed by manned 

aircraft or by individuals on the ground. Both are more time consuming and are more expensive 
12

than using UAs. Use of manned aircraft also poses enhanced risk to the pilot and onboard crew, 

who would be several hundred feet in the air. 

The enhanced safety and reduced environmental impact achieved using UAs and carrying 

no passengers or crew, rather than a manned aircraft of significantly greater mass, carrying crew 

in addition to flammable fuel, gives the FAA good cause to find that the UA operation enabled 

by this exemption is in the public interest.

Satisfaction of the criteria provided in Section 333 of the Reform Act of 2012 – size, 

weight, speed, operating capabilities, proximity to airports and populated areas and operation 

within visual line of sight and national security – provide more than adequate justification for the

grant of the requested exemption allowing commercial operation of petitioner’s UAs for aerial 

photography and videography of commercial real estate pursuant to Exhibit 1: Altitude 

Productions, LLC’s Flight Operations Manual, Section 4: Safety Management System.

The FAA has previously determined that using the DJI Phantom 2 Vision+ for aerial 

photography and videography of commercial real estate is in the public interest. The DJI 

Phantom 2 Vision+ has been approved for this commercial purpose in the following granted 

exemptions:

Exemption No. 11295 (real estate photography);

Exemption No. 11300 (real estate);

Exemption No. 11330 (aerial photography and cinematography for commercial and 

residential real estate);

Exemption No. 11361 (professional real estate photographic services);

Exemption No. 11363 (real estate);

Exemption No. 11403 (aerial cinematography and photography for... enhancing real 

estate listings);

Exemption No. 11410 (aerial photography and videography of real estate property);

Exemption No. 11417 (aerial photography and videography for... real estate);

Exemption No. 11455 (aerial videography and cinematography to... augment real estate 

listing videos); and

Exemption No. 11500 (aerial videography and photography for... the real estate 

industry).
