Dear Sir or Madam, 

I, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation,lnc.,am 

writing pursuant to the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 and the 

procedures contained within 14 C.F.R. 11, to request that the Veterans Helping 

Veterans Foundation,lnc., an owner and operator of small unmanned aircraft, 

be exempted from the Federal Aviation Regulations ("FARs") listed below so that 

I, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc., may 

operate a small ultra light weight unmanned aircraft system (''UAS") commercially 

in airspace regulated by the Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA"). 

As described herein I, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans 

Foundation, Inc., am a FAA licensed Pilot with over 20 years experence in 

owning and operation private aircraft and also flying hobby helicopters for 

recreational purposes. I have a hobby grade quad-copter• UAS equipped with a 

video and still camera for aerial videography and cinematography to enhance 

academic community awareness for non profit organizations in the South Florida 

area, and to produce revenue to further the charitable goals of the Veterans 

Helping Veterans Foundation Inc. by producing real estate listing videos; 

following exemption and approval by the FAA. 

I have flown small RC electric helicopters for over six (6) years without incident.

Section 333 Exemption Petition 

Committed to safety with each flight. The Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, 

Inc.'s, exemption request would permit operation of ultra light weight, unmanned 

(piloted by remote control) and comparatively inexpensive UAS(s) in tightly 

controlled and limited airspace.sPredetermined in areas away from general 

public, airports, heliports and vehicular traffic for community videos, and within 

property boundaries for individual homeowner real estate listing videos/photos. 

Currently, similar lightweight, remote controlled UAS's are legally operated by 

unmonitored amateur hobbyists with no safety plan or controls in place to prevent 

catastrophe. I, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans 

Foundation, Inc., have personally instilled safety protocols and controls4 to avoid 

and prevent public hazard, as well as manned aircraft hazards/catastrophe. This 

will act to further safety protocols exclusive to lightweight UAS's specific to real 

estate video and photography usage as I, Kaz Norvaisas will record flight data 

and other information gained through permitted flight operations to share with the 

FAA through any required FAA reports to assist with future protocol and safety 

regulation. 

Granting the Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc.'s, request comports 

with the Secretary of Transportation's (FAA Administrator's) responsibilities and 

authority to not only integrate UAS's into the national airspace system, but to 

" ... establish requirements for the safe operation of such aircraft systems [UAS's] 

in the national airspace system" under Section 333(c) of the Reform Act specific 

to the use of UAS's for real estate/Realtor purposes. Further I, Kaz Norvaisas, 

President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc., will conduct my 

operations in compliance with the protocols described herein or as otherwise 

established by the FAA. 

For the reasons stated below I, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping 

Veterans Foundation, Inc., respectfully request the grant of an exemption 

allowing me to operate ultra light weight, remote controlled UAS's for academic 

community awareness to benefit local non profit organizationas and to enhance 

real estate listing videos for homeowners who cannot afford expensive manned 

aircraft for the same purpose. Both of which will promote local economic growth 

through increased employment and increased tax base. Both with public safety in 

mind by keeping heavier manned aircraft containing combustible fuel that that 

poses potential public hazard.

II. The Specific Sections of Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations 

FromWhich Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans 

Foundation, Inc. Requests Exemption are: 

14 CFR 21;14 C.F.R. 45.23(b);14 CFR 61.113 (a) & (b);14 C.F.R. 91, et 

seq.;14 CFR 407 (a) (1);14 CFR 409 (a) (2); and, 14 CFR 417 (a) & (b). 

II. The Extent of relief Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping 

Veterans Foundation, Inc. seeks and the Reason He Seeks SuchRelief: 

I, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc., 

submit this application in accordance with the Reform Act, 112 P.L. 95 §§ 331-

334, seeking relief from any currently applicable FARs operating to prevent me, 

Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc., 

contemplated commercial cinematic, academic and other flight operations within 

the national airspace system. The Reform Act in Section 332 provides for such 

integration of civil unmanned aircraft systems into our national airspace system 

as it is in the public's interest to do so. My, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans 

Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc.'s, ultra light weight UAS meets the definition of 

"small unmanned aircraft" as defined in Section 331 and therefore the integration 

of my ultra light weight UAS is expressly contemplated by the Reform Act. I 

would like to operate my ultra light weight UAS prior to the time period by which 

the Reform Act requires the FAA to promulgate rules governing such craft. 

Thereby, providing direct experience and valuable information for formal 

regulation that can be administered uniformly to all real estate related UAS aerial 

video and photography. The Reform Act guides the Secretary in determining the 

types of UAS's that may operate safely in our national airspace system. 

Considerations include: The weight, size, speed and overall capabilities of the 

UAS's; Whether the UAS will be operated near airports or heavily populated 

areas; and, Whether the UAS will be operated by line of sight. 112 P.L. 95 § 333 

(a). Each of these items reflect in favor of an exemption for me, Kaz Norvaisas, 

Page 3 
Kaz Norvaisas,President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc. 

Section 333 Exemption Petition 

President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc .. My UAS utilizes four (4) 

counter-rotating propellers for balance, control and stability. My UAS is equipped 

with GPS and auto return safety technology. Weighing less than five (5) pounds 

(far below the maximum 55 pound limit); including camera with gimbal. 

I, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc., 

considers safety as foremost with each flight. My small unmanned aircraft is 

designed to hover in place via GPS and operate in less than a 24 knot (15 mph) 

wind. For safety, stability and fear of financial loss I will not fly in winds exceeding 

16 kph (10 mph). Built in safety systems include a GPS mode that allows my 

UAS to hover in place when radio controls are released. With three modes to 

choose from, I utilize the Smart Mode for aerial videography/photography. This is 

the safest, most reliable and stable mode to prevent accident and hazard. When 

pilot communication is lost UAS is designed slowly descend to point of take off. I 

do not operate my UAS near airports, Hospitals nor Police heliports, and do not 

operate near areas where general public is within fifty to one hundred (50-100) 

yards depending on location, conditions and weather. I am constantly on alert for 

any manned aircraft (Police/Medical helicopters, etc.) and prepared to land/abort 

immediately to the nearest and safest ground point should a manned aircraft 

approach my location or I suspect manned aircraft may approach near my 

location. My UAS is capable of vertical and horizontal operations, and are flown 

only within my line of sight of me, as the remote control pilot. Utilizing battery 

power rather than combustible fuels, flights generally last between seven (7) and 

ten(10) minutes with an altitude under one hundred fifty (150) feet. I, Kaz 

Norvaisas utilize a fresh fully charged battery with each flight as a safety 

precaution; full flight time limit for each battery is twenty (20) to twenty five (25) 

minutes as tested. I do not operate my UAS at or below manufacture recommend 

minimum charge levels for operation; preferring to remain well within a safe 

operating range to insure adequate communication between radio control and 

UAS to eliminate potential for crash, loss of control or hazard. Reserve batteries 

are at hand with each exercise to insure replacement for sufficient safe level of 

operation. I do not believe in taking risk that may cause a crash, that could create 

hazard to the public/property/manned aircraft, and have no desire to lose an 

investment. I have clocked numerous practice flights in remote areas as a 

hobbyist simulating flights for future commercial use to gain familiarization with 

the characteristics of this specific UAS's performance under different temperature 

and weather conditions. I also practice computerized simulated flights to maintain 

adequate skills and response reflex time. All for the sake of safety. 

I, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc.'s, am 

extremely cautious when operating of my UAS/ultra light weight unmanned 

aircraft and will not "create a hazard to users of the national airspace system or 

the public." 112 P.L. 95 § 333 (b). Given the small size and weight of my UAS it 

Page4 
Kaz Norvaisas,President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc. 

Section 333 Exemption Petition 

falls well within Congress's contemplated safety zone when it promulgated the 

Reform Act and the corresponding directive to integrate UAS's into the national 

airspace system. Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans 

Foundation, Inc.'s UAS, used in hobby flight, has a demonstrable safety record 

and does not pose any threat to the general public or national security. 

IV. How Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, 

Inc.'s Request Will Benefit the Public As A Whole: 

Aerial videography for geographical awareness and for real estate marketing has 

been around for a long time through manned fixed wing aircraft and helicopters. 

For small budget non profits as ours and average homeowners the expense of 

such aerial videography is cost prohibitive. Only large companies and high end 

Realtors or luxury homeowners can afford to absorb such expense. Depriving 

non-luxury homeowners and local non profts from attracting exposure to there 

fundraising activities with this valuable marketing tool. , 

Congress has already proclaimed that it is in the public's interest to integrate 

commercially flown UAS's into the national airspace system, hence the passing 

of the Reform Act. Granting my, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping 

Veterans Foundation, Inc.'s, exemption request furthers the public interest 

through academic/visual awareness of the geographical benefits in and around 

the South Florida area. My ultra light weight UAS is battery powered and creates 

no emissions that can harm the environment. The consequence of my ultra light 

weight UAS crashing is far less than a full size helicopter or fixed wing aircraft; 

which are heavy, contain combustible fuel and can cause catastrophic 

devastation to the public. 

The public's interest is furthered by minimizing ecological and crash threat by 

permitting aerial video/photo capture through my battery operated ultra light 

weight UAS's. Permitting me, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping 

Veterans Foundation, Inc., to immediately fly within national air space furthers 

economic growth. Granting my exemption request substantially will improve the 

publics awareness of the Veterans Helping Veterans Foundations mission to help 

our forgotten homeless veterans who have slipped through the cracks. 

V. Reasons Why Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans 

Foundation, Inc.'s Exemption Will Not Adversely Affect SafetyOr How The 

Exemption Will Provide a Level of Safety At Least Equal To Existing Rule: 

My, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc.'s, 

exemption will not adversely affect safety. Quite the contrary, for the reasons 

Page 5 
Kaz Norvaisas,President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc. 

Section 333 Exemption Petition 

stated permitting me, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans 

Foundation, Inc., to log more flight time in FAA controlled airspace, with 

communication with the FAA, will allow me to contribute to the innovation and 

implementation of new and novel, as of yet undiscovered safety protocols for 

cooperation with the FAA. In addition I, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans 

Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc., submit the following representations of 

enhancements to current aerial videography and photography for real estate: 

a. My UAS weighs less than 5 pounds complete with a small ultra light 

weight high quality camera; 

b. I only operate my UAS below 200 feets (well within the 400 foot permissible 

ceiling set by the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012); 

c. my UAS only operate for 7-10 minutes per flight; 

d. I land my UAS prior to manufacturer recommended minimum level of 

battery power; 

e. I pilot my UAS through remote control only by line of sight; 

f. My UAS has GPS a flight safety feature whereby it hovers and then slowly 

lands if communication with the remote control pilot is lost; 

g. I actively analyze flight data and other sources of information to constantly 

update and enhance safety protocols; 

h. I only operate in reasonably safe environment that are strictly controlled, 

are away from power lines, elevated lights, airports and actively populated areas; 

i. I conduct extensive pre-flight inspections and protocol, during which safety 

carries primary importance; 

j. I always obtains all necessary permissions prior to operation; and, 

k. I have procedures in place to abort flights in the event of safety breaches 

or potential danger. 

My safety protocols provide a level of safety equal to or exceeding existing rules. 

It is important to note that absent the integration of commercial UAS into our 

national airspace system, helicopters are the primary means of aerial video and 

photography for community awareness and real estate. While the safety record 

of such helicopters is remarkably astounding, there has been local incident 

involving loss of life as well as extensive property damage; it is far safer to 

operate a battery powered ultra light weight UAS. First, the potential loss of tife 

is diminished because UAS's carry no people on board and I only operates my 

UAS in specific areas away from mass populations. Second, there is no fuel on 

board a UAS and thus the potential for fire or explosions is greatly diminished. 

Third, the small size and extreme maneuverability of my UAS allow me to 

remotely pilot away from and avoid hazards quickly and safely. Lastly, given its 

small size and weight, even when close enough to capture amazing images, my 

UAS need not be so close to the objects they are focused on through the 

technology and use of post editing software allowing pan and zoom. Accordingly, 

my UAS has been experimentally operated for familiarization/competency and 

will continue to operate at and above current safety levels.

Section 333 Exemption Petition 

VI. A Summary The FAA May Publish in the Federal Register: 

A. 14 C.F.R. 21 and 14 C.F.R. 91: Airworthiness Certificates, Manuals and The 

Like. 

14 C.F.R. 21, Subpart H, entitled Airworthiness Certificates, sets forth 

requirements for procurement of necessary airworthiness certificates in 

relation to FAR § 91.203(a)(1 ). The size, weight and enclosed operational 

area of my, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans 

Foundation, Inc.'s, UAS permits exemption from Part 21 because my UAS 

meets (and exceeds) an equivalent level of safety pursuant to Section 333 of 

the Reform Act. The FAA is authorized to exempt aircraft from the 

airworthiness certificate requirement under both the Act (49 U.S.C. § 44701 

(f)) and Section 333 of the Reform Act. Both pieces of legislation permit the 

FAA to exempt UAS's from the airworthiness certificate requirement in 

consideration of the weight, size, speed, maneuverability and proximity to 

areas such as airports and dense populations. My, Kaz Norvaisas, President 

of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc.'s, current and projected UAS's 

meet or exceed each of the elements. 

14 C.F.R. 91.7(a) 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 inapplicable. 

14 C.F.R. § 91.9 (b) (2) requires an aircraft flight manual in the aircraft. As 

there are no on board pilots or passengers, and given the size of the UAS's, 

this Regulation is inapplicable. An equivalent level of safety will be achieved 

by maintaining a 

safety/flight manual delineating areas of where safety can be defined.•a The 

FAA has previously issued exemptions to this regulation in Exemption Nos. 

8607,8737, 8738,9299,9299A,9565,9565B, 10167, 10167A, 10602,10700 

and 32827. 

14 C.F.R. § 91.121 regarding altimeter settings is inapplicable insofar as my 

UAS utilizes electronic global positioning systems with a barometric sensor. 

14 C.F.R. § 91.203 (a) and (b) provides for the carrying of civil aircraft 

certifications and registrations. They are inapplicable for the same reasons 

described above. The equivalent level of safety will be achieved by 

maintaining any such required certifications and registrations by me, Kaz 

Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc .. 

B. 14 C.F.R. § 45.23: Marking of The Aircraft. 

Page 7 
Kaz Norvaisas,Pr$sident of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc. 

Section 333 Exemption Petition 

Applicable Codes of Federal Regulation require aircraft to be marked 

according to certain specifications. My UAS are, by definition, unmanned. 

They therefore do not have a cabin, cockpit or pilot station on which to 

mark certain words or phrases. Further, two-inch lettering is difficult to 

place on such small aircraft with dimensions smaller that minimal lettering 

requirement. Regardless, I will mark its UASs in the largest possible 

lettering by placing the word "EXPERIMENTAL" on its fuselage as 

required by 14 C.F.R. §45.29 (f) so that I the pilot, or anyone assisting me 

as a spotter with the UAV will see the markings. The FAA has previously 

issued exemptions to this regulation through Exemptions Nos. 8738, 

10167, 10167A and 10700. 

C. 14 C.F.R. § 61.113: Private Pilot Privileges and Limitations: PIC. 

Pursuant to 14 C.F.R. §§ 61.113 (a) & (b), private pilots are limited to noncommercial operations. I, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping 

Veterans Foundation, Inc., can achieve an equivalent level of safety as 

achieved by current Regulations because my UAS does not carry any 

pilots or passengers. Further, I Kaz Norvaisas hold a airmans certificate 

private pilot SEL for more than twenty (20) years with a perfect saftey 

record. The risks attended to the operation of my UAS is far less than the 

risk levels inherent in the commercial activities outlined in 14 C.F.R. § 61, 

et seq. Thus, allowing me, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping 

Veterans Foundation, Inc., to operate my UAS meet and exceed current 

safety levels in relation to 14 

C.F.R. §61.113 (a) & (b). 

D. 14 C.F.R. 91.119: Minimum Safe Altitudes. 

14 C.F.R. § 91.119 prescribes safe altitudes for the operation of civil 

aircraft. It allows helicopters to be operated at lower altitudes in certain 

conditions. My UAS will never operate at an altitude greater than 150AGL; 

safely below the standard of 400 AGL. I, Kaz Norvaisas, President of 

Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc., will however operate my UAS 

in safe areas away from public and traffic, providing a level of safety at 

least equivalent to or below those in relation to minimum safe altitudes. 

Given the size, weight, maneuverability and speed of my UAS, an 

equivalent or higher level of safety will be achieved. 

E. 14 C.F.R. 91.405 (a); 407 (a) (1); 409 (a) (2); 417(a) & (b): Maintenance 

Inspections. 

The above-cited Regulations require, amongst other things, aircraft 

Page 8 
Kaz Norvaisas,President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc. 

Section 333 Exemption Petition 

owners and operators to "have [the] aircraft inspected as prescribed in 

subpart E of this part and shall between required inspections, except as 

provided in paragraph (c) of this section, have discrepancies repaired as 

prescribed in part 43 of this chapter .... " 

These Regulations only apply to aircraft with an airworthiness certificate. They 

will not, therefore, apply to my, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping 

Veterans Foundation, Inc.'s, UAS. However, as a safety precaution I inspect my 

UAS before and after each flight. 

A Summary The FAA May Publish in the Federal Register: A. 14 C.F.R. 21 and 

14 

C.F.R. 91: Airworthiness Certificates, Manuals and The Like. 14 C.F.R. 21, 

Subpart H, entitled Airworthiness Certificates, sets forth requirements for 

procurement of necessary airworthiness certificates in relation to FAR § 

91.203(a)(1). The size, weight and enclosed operational area of my UAS permits 

exemption from Part 21 because my, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans 

Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc.'s, UAS meets an equivalent level of safety 

pursuant to Section 333 of the Reform Act. The FAA is authorized to exempt 

aircraft from the airworthiness certificate requirement under both the Act (49 

U.S.C. § 44701 (f)) and Section 333 of the Reform Act. Both pieces of legislation 

permit the FAA to exempt UAS's from the airworthiness certificate requirement in 

consideration of the weight, size, speed, maneuverability and proximity to areas 

such as airports and dense populations. My UAS meets or exceeds each of the 

elements. 14 C.F.R. 91.7(a) 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 inapplicable. 14 

C.F.R. § 91.9 (b) (2) requires an aircraft flight manual in the aircraft. As there are 

no pilots or passengers, and given the size. of the UAS's, this Regulation is 

inapplicable. An equivalent level of safety will be achieved by maintaining a 

manual. The FAA has previously issued exemptions to this regulation in 

Exemption Nos. 8607, 8737, 8738, 9299, 9299A, 9565, 95658, 10167, 

maintenance program that involves regular software updates and curative 

measures for any damaged hardware. Therefore, an equivalent level of safety 

will be achieved. 

In summary, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans 

Foundation, Inc. seeks an exemption from the following Regulations: 

14 C.F.R. 21, subpart H; 14 C.F.R. 45.23(b); 14 C.F.R. §§ 61.113 (a) & (b); 14 

C.F.R. § 

91.7 (a); 14 C.F.R. § 91.9 (b)(2); 14 C.F.R. § 91.1 03(b); 14 C.F.R. § 91.1 09; 14 

C.F.R. § 91.119; 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. § 91.405 (a); 14 C.F.R. § 91.407 (a)(1); 14 C.F.R. § 91.409 (a)(2); 14

Section 333 Exemption Petition 

C.F.R. § 

91.409 (a) (2); and, 14 C.F.R. §§ 91.417 (a) & (b) to commercially operate my, 

Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc.'s, small 

unmanned vehicle/lightweight unmanned aircraft vehicle in communityawareness 

and real estate operations, and real estate aerial videography/photography relies 

primarily on the use of larger aircraft runninQ on combustible fuel. Posingpotential 

risk to the pub~ic. Granting my, Kaz Norva1sas, President of Veterans Helping 

Veterans Foundation, Inc.'s, request for exemption will reduce current risk levels 

and thereby enhance safety. My UAS craft does not contain potentiallyexplosive 

fuel, is smaUer, lighter and more maneuverable than conventional real estate 

video and photographic aircraft with much less flight time. Further, I operate at 

rower altitudes and in controlled airspace eliminating potential public risk flying to 

and from established air fields. I, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping 

Veterans Found,ation, Inc., have been informally analyzing flight information and 

will compile safety protocols and the implementation of a flight operations manual 

for real estate usage that exceeds currently accepted means and methods for 

safe flight. Formal collection of information shared with the FAA will enhance the 

FAA's internal efforts to establish protocols for complying with the FAA 

Modernization and Reform Act of 2012. There are no personnel on board my, 

Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc.'s, UAS 

and therefore the likelihood of death or serious bodily injury is significantly 

diminished. My, Kaz Norvaisas, President of Veterans Helping Veterans 

Foundation, Inc.'s, operation of my UAS, weighing less than 5 pounds and 

travelling at lower speeds within limited areas will provide an equivalent level of 

safety as that achieved under current FARs. Accordingly I, Kaz Norvaisas, 

President of Veterans Helping Veterans Foundation, Inc., respectfully request 

that the FAA grant my exemption request and am willing to cooperate in sharing 

information to benefit the FAA, safety of manned aircraft, and the general public 

at large. 

Respectfully submitted,
