Mr. Cory L. Kersey 2115 Pandy Porter Road , A partment 308 Charlotte, NC 28273
Dear Mr. Kersey : This letter is to inform you that we have granted your request for exemption. It transmits our decision, explains its basis, and gives you th e conditions and limitations of the exemption, including the date it ends. By letter dated March 6, 2015 , you petitioned the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for an exemption. You requested to operate an unmanned ai rcraft system (UAS) to conduct aerial video and photography operations to provide high quality imaging for a variety of commercial, public, and residential uses, specifically targeting : aerial acquisitions used for inspections of public and private structures, education about UAS and pr omotion of their safe operation, and search and rescue operations

. See Appendix A for the petition submitted to the FAA describing the proposed operations and the regulations that the petitioner seeks an exemption

. The FAA has determined that good cause exists for not publishing a summary of the petition in the Federal Register because the requested exemption would not set a precedent, and any delay in acting on this petition would be detrimental to the petitioner. Airworthiness Certification The UAS pr oposed by the petitioner are the DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJI Inspire 1

. In accordance with the statutory criteria provided in Section 333 of P ublic Law 112

− 95 in reference to 49 U

. S

. C

. § 44704, and in consideration of the size, weight, speed, and limited operating area associated with the aircraft and its operation, the Secretary of Transportation2

has determined that this aircraft meets the conditions of Section 333. Therefore, the FAA finds that relief from 14 CFR part 21 , Certification procedure s for products and parts, Subpart H

— Airworthiness Certificates , and any associated noise certification and testing requirements of part 36, is not necessary. The Basis for Our Decision You have requested to use a UAS for aerial data collection 1

. The FAA has issued grants of exemption in circumstances similar in all material respects to those presented in your petition. In Grants of Exemption No s . 11062 to Astraeus Aerial ( see Docket No. FAA−2014−0352), 11109 to Clayco, Inc. ( see Docket No. FAA

− 20 14

− 0507), 11112 to VDOS Global, LLC ( see Docket No. FAA−2014−0382), and 11213 to Aeryon Lab s , Inc. ( see Docket No. FAA−2014−0642), the FAA found that the enhanced safety achieved using an unmanned aircraft (UA) with the specifications described by the petitioner and carrying no passengers or crew, rather than a manned aircraft of significantly greater propo rtions, carrying crew in addition to flammable fuel, gives the FAA good cause to find that the UAS operation enabled by this exemption is in the public interest. Having reviewed your reasons for requesting an exemption, I find that

—

 They are similar in a ll material respects to relief previously requested in Grant of Exemption Nos. 11062, 11109, 11112, and 11213 ;
 The reasons stated by the FAA for granting Exemption Nos. 11062, 11109, 11112, and 11213 also apply to the situation you present; and
 A grant of exemption is in the public interest. Our Decision In consideration of the foregoing, I find that a grant of exemption is in the public interest. Therefore, pursuant to the authority contained in 49 U.S.C. 106(f), 40113, and 44701, delegated to me by th e Administrator, Mr. Cory L. Kersey is granted an exemption from 14 CFR §§ 61.23(a) and ( c ), 61.101(e)(4 ) and (5), 61.113(a), 61.315(a) , 91.7(a), 91.119(c), 91.121, 91.151(a)(1), 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) and (2), and 91.417(a) and (b), to the extent necessary to allow the petitioner to operate a UAS to perform aerial data collection. This exemption is subject to the conditions and limitations listed below. Conditions and Limitations
In this grant of exemption, Mr. Cory L. Kersey is hereafter referred to as the operator.

1 Aerial data collection includes any remote sensing and measuring by an instrument(s) aboard the UA. Examples include imagery (photography, video, infrared, etc.), electronic measurement (precision surveying, RF analysis, etc.), chemical measurement (part iculate measurement, etc.), or any other gathering of data by instruments aboard the UA.3

Failure to comply with any of the conditions and limitations of this grant of exemption will be grounds for the immediate suspension or rescission of this exemption.
1. Operations authorized by this grant of exempt ion are limited to the DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJI Inspire 1 when weighing less than 55 pounds including payload. Proposed operations of any other aircraft will require a new petition or a petition to amend this exemption

. 2. Operations for the purpose of closed

- set motion picture and television filming are not permitted. 3. The UA may not be operated at a speed exceeding 87 knots (100 miles per hour). The exemption holder may use either groundspeed or calibrated airspeed to determine compliance with the 87 knot speed restriction. In no case will the UA be operated at airspeeds greater than the maximum UA operating airspeed recommended by the aircraft manufacturer.
4. The UA must be operated at an altitude of no more than 400 feet above ground level (AGL). Altitude must be reported in feet AGL. 5. The UA must be operated within visual line of sight (VLOS) of the PIC at all times. This requires the PIC to be able to use human vision unaided by any device other than corrective le nses, as specified on the PIC’s FAA

- issued airman medical certificate or U.S. driver’s license.
6. All operations must utilize a visual observer (VO). The UA must be operated within the visual line of sight (VLOS) of the PIC and VO at all times. The VO may be used to satisfy the VLOS requirement as long as the PIC always maintains VLOS capability. The VO and PIC must be able to communicate verbally at all times ; e lectronic messaging or texting is not permitted during flight operations. The PIC must be de signated before the flight and cannot transfer his or her designation for the duration of the flight. The PIC must ensure that the VO can perform the duties required of the VO.
7. This exemption and all documents needed to operate the UAS and conduct its op erations in accordance with the conditions and limitations stated in this grant of exemption, are hereinafter referred to as the operating documents. The operating documents must be accessible during UAS operations and made available to the Administrator upon request. If a discrepancy exists between the conditions and limitations in this exemption and the procedures outlined in the operating documents, the conditions and limitations herein take precedence and must be followed. Otherwise, the operator mus t follow the procedures as outlined in its operating documents. The operator may update or revise its operating documents. It is the4

operator’s responsibility to track such revisions and present updated and revised documents to the Administrator or any l aw enforcement official upon request. The operator must also present updated and revised documents if it petitions for extension or amendment to this grant of exemption. If the operator determines that any update or revision would affect the basis upon w hich the FAA granted this exemption, then the operator must petition for an amendment to its grant of exemption. The FA A’s UAS Integration Office (AFS− 80) may be contacted if questions arise regarding updates or revisions to the operating documents. 8. Any UAS that has undergone maintenance or alterations that affect the UAS operation or flight characteristics, e.g. , replacement of a flight critical component, must undergo a functional test flight prior to conducting further operations under this exemption. Functional test flights may only be conducted by a PIC with a VO and must remain at least 500 feet from other p eople. The functional test flight must be conducted in such a manner so as to not pose an undue hazard to persons and property.
9. The operator is responsible for maintaining and inspecting the UAS to ensure that it is in a condition for safe operation. 10. Pr ior to each flight, the PIC must conduct a pre

- flight inspection and determine the UAS is in a condition for safe flight. The pre

- flight inspection must account for all potential discrepancies, e.g. , inoperable components, items, or equipment. If the ins pection reveals a condition that affects the safe operation of the UAS, the aircraft is prohibited from operating until the necessary maintenance has been performed and the UAS is found to be in a condition for safe flight.
11. The operator must follow the UA S manufacturer’s maintenance, overhaul, replacement, inspection, and life limit requirements for the aircraft and aircraft components. 12. Each UAS operated under this exemption must comply with all manufacturer safety bulletins. 13. Under this grant of exemptio n, a PIC must hold either an airline transport, commercial, private, recreational, or sport pilot certificate. The PIC must also hold a current FAA airman medical certificate or a valid U.S. driver’s license issued by a state, the District of Col u mbia, Pu erto Rico, a territory, a possession, or the Federal government. The PIC must also meet the flight revi ew requirements specified in 14 CFR § 61.56 in an aircraft in which the PIC is rated on his or her pilot certificate.
14. The operator may not permit any PIC to operate unless the PIC 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 approp riate distances from persons, vessels, vehicles and structures. PIC5

qualification flight hours and currency must be logged in a manner consistent with 14 CFR § 61.51(b). Flights for the purposes of training the operator’s PICs and VOs (traini ng, proficie ncy, and experience

- building) and determining the PIC’s ability to safely operate the UAS in a manner consistent with how the UAS will be operated under this exemption are permitted under the terms of this exemption. However, training operations may only be conducted during dedicated training sessions. During traini ng, proficiency, and experience

- building flights, all persons not essential for flight operations are considered nonparticipants, and the PIC must operate the UA with appropriate distance from nonparticipants in accordance with 14 CFR § 91.119. 15. UAS operations may not be conducted during night, as defined in 14 CFR § 1.1. All operations must be conducted under visual meteorological conditions (VMC). Flights under special visual flight rules (S VFR) are not authorized. 16. The UA may not operate within 5 nautical miles of an airport reference point (ARP) as denoted in the current FAA Airport/Facility Directory (AFD) or for airports not denoted with an ARP, the center of the airport symbo l as denoted on the current FAA

- published aeronautical chart, unless a letter of agreement with that airport’s management is obtained or otherwise permitted by a COA issued to the exemption holder. The letter of agreement with the airport management must be made avail able to the Administrator or any law enforcement official upon request.
17. The UA may 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. 18. If the UAS loses communications or loses its GPS sign al, the UA must return to a pre - determined location within the pr ivate or controlled

- access property. 19. The PIC must abort the flight in the event of unpredicted obstacles or emergencies. 20. The PIC is prohibited from begin ning a flight unless (considering wind and forecast weather conditions) there is enough available power for the UA to conduct the intended operation and to operate after that for at least five minutes or with the reserve power recommended by the manufactur er if greater.
21. Air Traffic Organization (ATO) Certificate of Waiver or Authorization (COA). All operations shall be cond ucted in accordance with an ATO

- issued COA. The exemption holder may apply for a new or amended COA if it intends to conduct operatio ns that cannot be conducted under the terms of the attached COA

. 22. All aircraft operated in accordance with this exemption must be identified by serial number, registered in accordance with 14 CFR part 47, and have identification (N− Number) markings in acco rdance with 14 CFR part 45, Subpart C. Markings must be as large as practicable.6

23. Documents used by the operator to ensure the safe operation and flight of the UAS and any documents required under 14 CFR §§ 91.9 and 91.203 must be available to the PIC at the Ground Control Station of the UAS any time the aircraft is operating. These documents must be made available to the Administrator or any law enforcement official upon request.
24. The UA must remain clear and give way to all manned aviation operations and activities at all times. 25. The UAS may not be operated by the PIC from any moving device or vehicle. 26. All Flight operations must be conducted at least 500 feet from all nonpartici pating persons, vessels, vehicles, and structures unless: a. Barriers or structures are present that sufficiently protect nonparticipating persons from the UA and/or debris in the event of an accident. The operator must ensure that nonparticipating persons r emain under such protection. If a situation arises where nonparticipating persons leave such protection and are within 500 feet of the UA, flight operations must cease immediately in a manner ensuring the safety of nonparticipating persons ; and b. The owner/controller of any vessels, vehicles or structures has granted permission for operating closer to those objects 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. The PIC, VO, operator trainees or essential persons are not considered nonparticipating persons under this exemption.
27. All operations shall be conducted over private or control led

- access property with permission from the property owner/controller or authorized representative. Permission from property owner/controller or authorized representative will be obtained for each flight to be conducted. 28. Any incident, accident, or flight operation that transgresses the lateral or vertical boundaries of the operational area as defined by the applicable COA must be reported to the FA A's UAS Integration Office (AFS− 80) within 24 hours.

Kersey seeks exemption from the requirements of 14 C.F.R §§ 61.113(a) & (b), 91.7(a), 91.121, 91.151(b), 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a)(2), and 91.417(a) & (b), to operate an Unmanned Aircraft Sy stem pursuant to Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (FMRA). This exemption will permit Cory L. Kersey to oper ate an Unmanned Aircraft Sy stem (UAS) for the commercial purpose of conducting aerial video and photograph y of construction sites, real estate, and landscape over certain areas of the United States.

**INTRODUCTION AND INTERESTS OF THE PETITIONER** Cory L . Ker sey provides its clients with aerial photo and video

. Cory L . Kersey has

over 5 years of professional video and photography and is recognized as an expert in cinematograph y . He has over 5 years recreational/hobby experience in all aspects of aerial video and photograph y. The objective of Cory L . Kersey ’s aerial video and photography operation s is to provide high qualit y imaging for a variet y of comme rcial, public, and residential uses, specifically targeting:

 Motion Picture F ilming

 Aerial acquisitions used for inspections of public and private structures.

 In crease public knowledge of UAS and promote safe UAS operations.

 Search and Rescue operations **BACKGROUND** Unmanned Aircraft Sy stems: DJI Phantom 3, DJ I Inspire 1 UASs Cory L

. Kersey seeks an exemption to operate DJ I systems for compensation or hire within the NAS. The DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 are vertical takeoff5

and landing (VTOL) Unmanned Aircraft (UA) with a Ground Control Station (GCS) utilizing electro nic tablet or smart phone s ys tems. The DJ I Phantom 3 Professional has a maximum gross weight of approximately 2 pounds 11 ounces, while having a length of 16 inches width of 16 inches, height of 8 inches, and a maximum speed of approximately 29 knots. The DJ I Inspire 1 has a maximum gross weight of 6 pounds 7.5 ounces, a length of 17.3 inches, width of 17.7 inches, height of 11.8 inches, and a maximum speed of approximately

42 knots. The DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1UAs are equipped with four main rotors; driven by L ithium Poly

mer battery

powered electric
motors. The DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UAs that will be operated by Cory L . Kersey will be registered in accordance with 49 U.S.C. 44103, Registration of Aircraft , as well as 14 C.F.R Part 47, Aircraft Registration , and marked in accorda nce with 14 C.F.R. Part 45, Identification and Registration Marking

.

**BASIS FOR PETITION** Petitioner, Cory

L . Kersey , pursuant to the provisions of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 C.F.R. § 11.61) and the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (FMRA) , Section 333, Special Rules for Certain Unmanned Aircraft Systems , hereb y petitions the Administrator to commerciall y operate the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional , DJ I Inspire 1 UASs in the National Airspace S ys tem (NAS), and for an exemption from the requireme nts of 14 C.F.R §§ 61.113(a) & (b), 91.7(a), 91.121, 91.151(b), 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a)(2), and 91.417(a) & (b).6 In consideration of the speed, weight, size, and limited operating area associated with the unmanned aircraft and its oper ation, Cory L . Kersey ’s operation of DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs meets the conditions of FMRA Section 333 and therefore, will not require an airworthiness certificate in accordance with 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H. Accordingl y, Cory L. Kersey requests relief from Sections 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a)(2), and 91.417(a) & (b), as these sections set forth requirements for maintenance that onl y apply to aircraft with an airworthiness certificate. Cory L . Kersey submits th at the requested relief is proper since an equivalent level of safet y will be ensured. Cory L . Kersey will use experienced personnel or technicians to perform maintenance, alterations, or preventive maintenance on the UASs using the methods, techniques, an d practices prescribed in the operating documents (i.e., Monthly Maintenance Lo g , and DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 Instruction Manual). Furthermore, Cory

L . Kersey will document and maintain all maintenance records for the
DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs. Relief from certain requirements of Section 61.113(a) and (b), entitled Private pilot privileges and limitations: Pilot in command , is requested by Cory L . Kersey to the extent
necessary to allow a Pilot in Command (PI C) holding a private pilot or higher level certificate, as well as an airman medical certificate, and who has demonstrated, b y meeting minimum flight

- hour and currency requirements, that the PI C is able to safely operate the
DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs in a manner consistent with this exemption, including evasive and emergency maneuvers and maintaining appropriate distances from people, vessels, vehicles and structures.7 Cory L . Kersey seeks relief from Section 91.7(a), entitled Civil aircraft airworthiness , because the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs do not require an airworthiness certificate in accordance with 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H. As such, Cory

L . Kersey submits that he will ensure that the DJ I Phantom 3 P rofessional and
DJI I nspire 1UASs are in an airworth y condition, prior to every flight, by determining that the UASs are in compliance with the operating documents (i.e., Monthly Maintenance
Lo g, and DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 Instruction Manual), and that the aircraft are in a condition for safe flight. Cory L . Kersey also seeks an exemption from the requirements of Section 91.121, entitled Altimeter Settings , as the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UAs will not have a t ypica l barometric altimeter onboard. However, altitude information of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1UAs will be provided to the PI C via Global Positioning Sy stem (GPS) equipment and radio communications telemetry data link, which downlinks fro m the UA to the GCS for active monitoring of the flight path. This altitude information, combined with Cory L . Kersey ’s operation of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs within visual line of sight, at or below 500 feet AGL, will ensure a level of safety

equivalent to Section 91.121. Additionally , Cory

L . Kersey seeks an exemption from the requirements of Section 91.151(b), entitled Fuel requirements for flight in VFR conditions

. Cory L . Kersey submits that safet y will not be affected b y o peration of the DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UAs during daylight hours in visual meteorological conditions (VMC) under visual flight rules (VFR), with enough battery power to fl y for a total duration of8

approximately

13.5 minutes to the fir st point of intended landing and, assuming normal cruising speed, to fl y after that for at least 4.5 minutes. In accordance with 14 C.F.R. § 11.81, Cory L . Kersey provides the following information in support of its petition for exemption:

**C. The Extent Of Relief Cory L. Kersey**  **Seeks And The Reason Cory L. Kersey**  **Seeks The Relief.**  **1. Extent Of Relief Cory L. Kersey**  **Seeks And The Reason Cory L. Kersey**  **Seeks Relief From Section 61.113(a) And (b).** Relief from Section 61.113(a) and (b) entitle d Private pilot privileges and limitations: Pilot in command , is requested to the extent necessary to allow a PI C holding a private pilot or higher level certificate, as well as a current and valid airman medical certificate, and who has met certain flight

- hour and currency requirements, to conduct the proposed UAS flight operations for compensation or hire. This relief is requested since the limitations set forth in Section 61.113(a) and (b) state that a private pilot may , for compensation or hire, act as PI C of an aircraft in connection with an y business or emplo ym ent if: (1) The flight is only incidental to that business or employ

ment; and (2) The aircraft does not carry passengers or propert y for compensation or hire. As set forth more full y below, Cory L . Kersey submits that an equivalent level of safet y will be maintained because no PIC will be allowed to operate the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional UAS or DJ I Inspire 1 UAS unless that PI C has met certain flight

- hour and
currency requirements, demonstrat ing that the PIC is able to safel y operate either the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional or DJ I Inspire 1 UAS in a manner consistent with the operations specifications as described in this exemption, including evasive and emergency maneuvers, as well as maintainin g appropriate distances from people, vessels, vehicles and structures.13 Further, Cory

L . Kersey submits that all flights of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs, conducted b y the PIC pursuant to the grant of this Petition: (1) will be incid ental to Cory L . Kersey ’s business; and (2) will not carry passengers or propert y for compensation or hire. **2. Extent Of Relief Cory L. Kersey**  **Seeks And The Reason Cory L. Kersey**  **Seeks Relief From Section 91.7(a).** Relief from Section 91.7(a) entitled Ci vil aircraft airworthiness , is requested to the extent required to allow Cory L . Kersey to determine that the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs are in airworth y condition prior to every flight b y ensuring that the UAS is in compliance with the operating documents (i.e., the Cory L . Kersey Aerial Operations Manual, Monthly Maintenance Log, and DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 Instruction Manual). Cory L . Kersey seeks the requested relief because the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs do not require an airworthiness certificate in accordance with 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H. Therefore, Cory L . Kersey will ensure that the DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs are in airworthy condition based upon its compliance with the operating documents (i.e ., Monthly Maintenance Log, and DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 Instruction Manual) prior to every flight, and further, determine that the aircraft are in condition for safe flight, as stated in the conditions and limitations below. **3. Extent Of Relief Cory L. Kersey**  **Seeks And The Reason Cory L. Kersey**  **Seeks Relief From Section 91.121.** Relief from Section 91.121, entitled Altimeter settings , may be required to allow flight operations of the DJI Phan tom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs, which utilize a barometric pressure sensor, GPS equipment, and a radio communications telemetry data14

link to downlink altitude information from the UA to the PI C at the ground control station (GCS). Since the FAA requires that an y altitude information concerning UAS operations be reported to air traffic control (ATC) in feet above ground level (AGL), Cory L . Kersey seeks the requested relief because the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I In spire 1 UA’s altimeter ma y be set on the ground to zero feet AGL , rather than the local barometric pressure or field altitude, before each flight. Considering the limited altitude of the proposed operations, relief from 14 CFR 91.121 is sought to the extent necessary to comply

wi th the applicable conditions and limitations stated below. As more full y set forth herein, an equivalent level of safet y will be maintained since the DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UAs are equipped with a barometric pressure sensor and GPS eq uipment, which automatically ensures that a ground level pressure setting will be established prior to each flight, and provides the PI C with altitude information of the UA on the heads

- up display of the GCS. **4. Extent Of Relief Cory L. Kersey**  **Seeks And T he Reason**  **Cory L. Kersey Seeks Relief From Section 91.151(b).**  Relief from Section 91.151(b) entitled Fuel requirements for flight in VFR conditions , is requested to the extent required to allow flights of the battery powered DJ I Phantom 3 Professional an d DJI I nspire 1 UAs during day light hours in visual meteorological conditions (VMC), under visual flight rules (VFR), for a total duration of 13.5 minutes to the first point of intended landing and, assuming normal cruising speed, to fly after that for at least 4.5 minutes. Cory L . Kersey seeks the requested relief because without an exemption from Section 91.151(b), the flight time duration of the battery powered DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UAs will severel y constrain the15

practicalit y of an y aerial video or still photo flight operations that Cory L . Kersey proposes to conduct pursuant to this Petition. Significantl y, as set forth below, the technical specifications of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs, the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1 operating documents, and Cory L . Kersey ’s proposed operating limitations, ensure that Cory L . Kersey will safely

operate the battery

powered DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and
DJI I nspire 1 UAs during day light h ours in visual meteorological conditions (VMC), under visual flight rules (VFR), with enough battery power to fl y for a total duration of 13.5 minutes to the first point of intended landing and, assuming normal cruising speed, to fl y after that for at leas t 4.5 minutes. **5. Extent Of Relief Cory L. Kersey**  **Seeks And The Reason Cory L. Kersey**  **Seeks Relief From Sections 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a)(2), And 91.417(a) & (b).**  Since Sections 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a)(2), and 91.41 7(a) & (b) only appl y to aircraft with an airworthiness certificate, Cory L . Kersey requests relief from these Sections because the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs do not require airworthiness certificates. As set forth more fully below, the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs meet the conditions of FMRA Section 333 for operation without an airworthiness certificate. Accordingl y, Cory L . Kersey will use trained technicians to perform maintenance, alterations, or preventive ma intenance on the UASs using the methods, techniques, and practices prescribed in the UAS operating documents (i.e., the Cory L . Kersey Aerial Operations Manual, Monthly Maintenance Log, and DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 Instruction Manual). Furthermore, Cory L. Kersey will document and maintain all maintenance records for the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs.16

**D. The Reasons Why Granting Cory L. Kersey**  **’s Request Would Be In The Public**  **Interest; That Is, How It Would Benefit The Public As A Whole.** Granting the present Petition will further the public interest b y allowing Cory L

. Kersey to safel y, efficiently , and economicall y perform aerial video and photograph y of construction sites, real estate, and landscape over certain areas of the United States. Additionally , use of the DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs will decre ase congestion of the NAS, reduce pollution, and provide significant benefits to the

econom y. Notabl y, the benefits of Cory L . Kersey ’s proposed operation of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1 UASs will be realized without implicating an y pri vacy issues. **1. The Public Will Benefit From Decreased Congestion Of The NAS.** The DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UAs are battery powered and serve as a safe, efficient, and economical alternative to the manned aircraft traditionally utilize d to obtain aerial imagery . By reducing the amount of manned aircraft needed to perform aerial acquisitions, an exemption allowing the use of a DJ I Phantom 3 Professional or DJ I Inspire 1 UAS would reduce the amount of manned aircraft in the NAS, reduce no ise and air pollution, as well as increase the safety of life and propert y in the air and on the ground. Furthermore, b y reducing the number of manned aircraft operating in the NAS, congestion around airports caused b y arriving and departing aircraft will be reduced. The
DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UAs do not require an airport to takeoff or land. L ikewise, a reduction of manned aircraft conducting aerial video and photography missions would result in fewer aircraft that must be handled b y air traffic control during the ground, takeoff, departure, arrival, and landing phases of flight operations.17 **2. The Public Will Benefit From The Safety And Efficiency Of The DJI**  **Phantom 3 Professional and DJI Inspire 1**  **UASs.** Conducting aerial acquisitio ns with the DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I In spire 1 UASs, instead of manned aircraft, will greatly benefit the public by

drastically

reducing the levels of air and noise pollution generated during traditional aerial video and still photograph y flight operations. By using battery

power and electric motors, the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1 UASs produce no air pollution, and is the most viable environmentall y conscious alternative to the cabin class, six cy linder internal combustion engine aircraft that are t ypicall y utilized for aerial video and photograph y, while burning approximately 20

- 30 gallons per hour of leaded aviation fuel. The DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1 UAs, while reducing the carbon footprint of aerial acquisit ions, also eliminates noise pollution, as the UAs are propelled by battery powered electric motors, rather than an internal combustion engine. By using the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I In spire 1 UASs to perform aerial acquisitions, the substantial r isk to life and property in the air and on the ground, which is usually associated with traditional manned aircraft flight operations, will be substantially reduced or completel y eliminated. Aside from the lack of flight crew members located onboard the ai rcraft, the DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UAs (weighing approximately

2 pounds 11 ounces and 6 pounds 7.5 ounces respectivel y, at their maximum gross weights with lengths of 16 inches and 17.3 inches respectively , widths of 16 inches and 17.7 inches respectivel y, and with no fue l on board), has less phy sical potential for collateral damage to life and propert y on the ground, and in the air, compared to the manned aircraft that ty pically conduct similar operations (weighing approximately18

6,000 pounds with a wingspan of approximate ly 42 feet, a length of 34 feet, and a fuel capacity of 180 gallons). **3. Performing Aerial Video and Photography Operations With The DJI**  **Phantom 3 Professional and DJI Inspire 1 UASs Will Benefit The Economy.**  In addition to being safe and efficient, the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI Inspire 1 UASs are also an economical alternative to using manned aircraft to conduct similar aerial operations. As such, operation of the DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs will allow United States based companies, like Cory L . Kersey , to remain competitive and contribute to growth of the U.S. economy . Specificall y, with the rising cost of aviation fuel and the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) regulatory

actions phasing out leaded aviation fuels, U. S. owned and operated companies must adopt new and alternative technology

in order to remain competitive. Operating the battery powered DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1 UASs is one such technology that not only allows companies greater operatio nal flexibility compared to manned aircraft, but provides such flexibility

without the high operational cost of a traditional manned aircraft. By operating the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1 UASs, companies such as Cory

L . Kersey , can remain competitive and profitable, and therefore, provide greater job stability

to employ ees and contractors, which will ultimately contribute to growth of the U.S. economy . Improved financial performance of U.S. companies, through commercial use of the DJI Phan tom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs, provides a stable workforce that increases consumer spending; improves local, state, and federal tax revenues; and allows companies to invest in research and development in order to remain competitive both in the United States and abroad. **4. There Are No Privacy Issues.**19

Similar to the manned aerial acquisition flight operations that have been conducted for decades, Cory

L . Kersey ’s proposed operation of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs will not implicate any privacy issues. Specificall y, the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs will be operated only in compliance with operating documents (i.e., the Cory L . Kersey Aerial Operations Manual, Monthly Maintenance Log, and DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 Instruction Manual) which requires propert y owner involvement as well as local law enforcement notification, and in accordance with the Federal Aviation Regulations, including the minimum altitude requirements of 14 C.F.R. § 91.119. **E. The Reasons Why Granting The Exemption Would Not Adversely Affect Safety, Or How The Exemption Would Provide A Level Of Safety At Least Equal To That**  **Provided By The Rule From Which Cory L. Kersey**  **Seeks Exemption. 1. Reasons Why The**  **DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJI Inspire 1 UAs**  **Meet The Conditions Of The FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012**  **(FMRA) Section 333.** In consideration of the size, weight, speed, and limited operating area associated with the unmann ed aircraft and its operation, Cory L . Kersey ’s operation of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1 UASs meet the conditions of FMRA Section 333, and will not require an airworthiness certificate in accordance with 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H. Section 333 provides authority for a UAS to operate without airworthiness certification and sets forth requirements for considering whether a UAS will create a hazard to users of the NAS or the public, or otherwise pose a threat to national securit y. Speci ficall y, FMRA Section 333 states the following, in part: (a ) In General.

-- Notwithstanding any other requirement of this subtitle, and not later than 180 days after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Transportation shall determine if certa in unmanned aircraft systems may20 operate safely in the national airspace system before completion of the plan and rulemaking required by section 332 of this Act or the guidance required by section 334 of this Act. (b ) Assessment of Unmanned Aircraft Systems.

-- In making the determination under subsection (a), the Secretary shall determine, at a minimum

-- (1 ) which types of unmanned aircraft systems, if any, as a result of their size, weight, speed, operational capab ility, proximity to airports and populated areas, and operation within visual line of sight do not create a hazard to users of the national airspace system or the public or pose a threat to national security; and (2 ) whether a certificate of waiver, cert ificate of authorization, or airworthiness certification under section 44704 of title 49, United States Code, is required for the operation of unmanned aircraft systems identified under paragraph (1). (c) Requirements for Safe Operation.

-- If the Secretar y determines under this section that certain unmanned aircraft systems may operate safely in the national airspace system, the Secretary shall establish requirements for the safe operation of such aircraft systems in the national airspace system. In seeking this exemption, Cory L . Kersey submits that the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs can operate safel y in the NAS pursuant to FMRA Section 333, as demonstrated b y: (a) the characteristics of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I I nspire 1 UASs; (b) the pilot certification requirement; and (c) the specific operating limitations.

**a. The Specifications Of The DJI Phantom 3 Professional**  **and DJI Inspire 1 UASs Demonstrate Its Safe Characteristics.**  The DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs do not create a hazard to users of the NAS or the public, or otherwise pose a threat to national security considering its size, weight, speed, and operational capability

.

**b. Flight Operations Of DJI Phantom 3 Professional**  **and DJI Inspire 1 UASs Are Limited To The Line Of Sight Of A Certificated Pilot in**  **Command With A Safety Observer.** Cory L . Kersey will only utilize certificated pilots who possess a current and valid airman medical certificate to act as a pilot in command (PI C) of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs. Additionally, a safet y observer will assist all pilots during fli ght time.

**c. Flights Of DJI Phantom 3 Professional**  **and DJI Inspire 1 UASs Will Be**  **Conducted Pursuant To Specific Operating Limitations.** In seeking this exemption, Cory L . Kersey proposes to commerciall y operate DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1 UASs for the special purpose of conducting aerial video and photography over certain areas of United States, pursuant to the following specific operating limitations: 1. Operations authorized by this grant of exemption will be limited to the following a ircraft described in the operating documents, rotorcraft UASs weighing less than 55 pounds maximum gross weight: DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI Inspire 1 Unmanned Aircraft Sy stems. Proposed operations of an y other aircraft will require a new petition o r a petition to amend this grant. 2. UAS operations under this exemption will be limited to conducting operations for the purpose of aerial video and photograph y. 3. The UAs may

not be flown at an indicated airspeed exceeding 20 knots. 4. The UA must be operated at an altitude of no more than 500 feet above ground level (AGL), as indicated by the procedures specified in the operating23 documents unless a special request is made and approved b y ATC. All altitudes reported to ATC must be in feet AGL. 5. The UAs must be operated within visual line of sight (VLOS) of the PI C at all times. This requires the PIC to be able to use human vision unaided by an y device other than corrective lenses, as specified on the PI C’s FAA

- issued airman medical certificate. 6. The use of first person view (FPV) b y the PI C or safet y observer (SO) is not permitted. 7. All operations must utilize a safet y observer (SO). The SO may be used to satisfy the VLOS requirement as long as the PIC alway s maintains VL OS capability

. The SO and PI C must be able to communicate verbally at all times. Electronic messaging or texting is not permitted during flight operations. The PIC must be designated before the flight and cannot transfer his or her designation for the duration of the flight. The PI C must ensure that the SO can perform the functions prescribed in the operating docume nts. 8. The SO must not perform any other duties bey ond assisting the PI C with seeing and avoiding other air traffic and other ground based obstacles/obstructions and is not permitted to operate the camera or other instruments. 9. The operating documen ts and the grant of exemption must be accessible during UAS operations and made available to the Administrator upon request. If a discrepancy

exists between the conditions and limitations contained in the grant of exemption and the procedures outlined in t he operating documents, the conditions and limitations contained in the grant of exemption take precedence and must be followed. Otherwise, the operator must follow the procedures as outlined in its operating documents. The operator may update or revise it s operating documents. It is the operator’s responsibility to track such revisions and present updated and revised documents to the Administrator upon request. The operator must also present updated and revised documents if it petitions for extension or am endment to the grant of exemption. If the operator determines that any update or revision would affect the basis upon which the FAA granted the exemption, then the operator must petition for amendment to its grant of exemption. The FAA’s UAS I ntegration Of fice (AFS

- 80) may

be contacted if questions arise regarding updates or revisions to the operating documents. 10. Prior to each flight the PI C must inspect the UAS to ensure that it is in a condition for safe flight. If the inspection reveals a condition that affects the safe operation of the UAS, the aircraft is prohibited from operating until the necessary maintenance has been performed and the UAS is found to be in a condition for safe flight. The Ground Control Station must be included in the preflight inspection. All maintenance and alterations must be properl y documented in the aircraft records.24 11. Any UAS that has undergone maintenance or alterations that affect the UAS operation or flight characteristics, e.g. replacement of a flight critical com ponent, must undergo a functional test flight. The PI C who conducts the functional test flight must make an entry in the aircraft records. 12. The pre

- flight inspection must account for all potential discrepancies, e.g. inoperable components, items, or e quipment, not already covered in the relevant sections of the operating documents. 13. The operator must follow the UAS manufacturer’s aircraft/component, maintenance, overhaul, replacement, inspection, and life limit requirements. 14. The operator mus t carry out its maintenance, inspections, and record keeping requirements, in accordance with the operating documents. Maintenance, inspection, alterations, and status of replacement/overhaul component parts must be noted in the aircraft records, including total time in service, description of work accomplished, and the signature of the authorized person returning the UAS to service. 15.

The authorized person must make an entry in the aircraft record of the corrective action taken against discrepancies discovered between inspections. 17. The PI C must possess at least a private pilot certificate and at least a current third

- class medical certificate. 18. T he operator may

not permit any

PIC to operate unless the PI C meets the operator’s qualification criteria and demonstrates the ability to safel y operate the UAS in a manner consistent with how the UAS will be operated under the exemption, including evasive and emergency maneuvers and maintaining appropriate distances from persons, vessels, vehicles and structures. PIC qualification flight hours must be logged in a manner consistent with 14 C.F.R. § 61.51(b). Flights for the purposes of training the operator’ s PICs are permitted under the terms of the exemption. However, training operations may only be conducted during dedicated training sessions. During training, proficiency , and experience

- building flights, all persons not essential for flight operations are considered nonparticipants, and the PI C must operate the UA with appropriate distance from nonparticipants in accordance with 14 C.F.R. § 91.119. 19. UAS operations may

not be conducted during night, as defined in 14 C.F.R. § 1.1. All operations must be conducted under visual meteorological conditions (VMC). If flight at night is required, a special request will be made at the FAA office closest to proposed area of operations. Flights under special visual flight rules (SVFR) are not authorized.25 20. The UA may

not operate 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 is obtained, and the operation is conducted in accordance with a NOTAM as required by the operator’s COA. The letter of agreement with the airport management must be made available to the Administrator upon request

. 21. The UA may

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 PI C. 22. If the UA loses communications or loses its GPS signal, it must return to a pr e determined location within the planned operating area and land or be recovered in accordance with the operating documents. 23. The PI C must abort the flight in the event of unpredicted obstacles or emergencies in accordance with the operating document s. 24. The PI C is prohibited from beginning 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 land the UA with 25% battery power remaining. 25. The operator must obtain an Air Traffic Organization (ATO) issued Certificate of Waiver or Authorization (COA) prior to conducting an y operations under the grant of exemption. This COA will also require the operator to request a Notice to Airman (NOTAM) not m ore than 72 hours in advance, but not less than 48 hours prior to the operation. All operations shall be conducted in accordance with airspace requirements in the ATO issued COA including class of airspace, altitude level and potential transponder requirem ents. 26. All aircraft operated in accordance with the exemption must be identified by serial number, registered in accordance with 14 C.F.R. part 47, and have identification (N

The documents required fewer than 14 C.F.R. 91.9 and 91.203 must be available to the PIC at the Ground Control Station of the UAS an y time the UAS is operating. These documents must be made available to the Administrator or an y law enforcement official upon request. 29. The UA must remain clear and yi eld the right of way to all manned aviation operations and activities at all times.26 30. The UAS may

not be operated b y the PIC from any moving device or vehicle. 31. Flight operations must be conducted at least 500 feet from all nonparticipating persons (persons other than the PI C, SO, operator trainees or essential persons), vessels, vehicles, and structures unless: a. Barriers or structures are present that suf ficiently protect nonparticipating persons from the UA and/or debris in the event of an accident. The operator must ensure that nonparticipating persons remain under such protection. If a situation arises where nonparticipating persons leave such protectio n and are within 500 feet of the UA, flight operations must cease immediately

and/or; 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 PI C h as made a safet y assessment of the risk of operating closer to those objects and determined that it does not present an undue hazard, and; c. Operations nearer to the PI C, SO, operator trainees or essential persons do not present an undue hazard to those persons per § 91.119(a). 32. All operations shall be conducted over private or controlled

- access property with permission from the land owner/controller or authorized representative. Permission from land owner/controller or authorized representative wil l be obtained for each flight to be conducted. 33. Any incident, accident, or flight operation that transgresses the lateral or vertical boundaries of the operational area as defined by the applicable COA must be reported to the FAA's UAS Integration Off ice (AFS

- 80) within 24 hours. Accidents must be reported to the National Transportation Safet y Board (NTSB) per instructions contained on the NTSB Web site: www.ntsb.gov

. **2. Reasons Why An Exemption From The Requiremen ts Of Section 61.113(a)**  **And (b) Would Not Adversely Affect Safety.** Cory L . Kersey submits that the equivalent level of safet y established by Section 61.113(a) and (b) will be maintained because no PIC will be allowed to operate the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1 UASs unless that PI C has demonstrated, by meeting minimum flight

- hour and currency requirements, that the PI C is able to safel y operate the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional or DJ I Inspire 1 UAS in a manner consistent with27

the exemp tion, including evasive and emergency maneuvers and maintaining appropriate distances from people, vessels, vehicles and structures. Considering Cory

L . Kersey ’s proposed area of operations, and the operating limitations set forth

- above; the parallel natu re of private pilot aeronautical knowledge requirements to those of commercial pilot requirements ( See Exemption No. 11062); and the airmanship skills necessary to safel y operate the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional or DJ I Inspire 1 UAS, Cory

L . Kersey submits t hat the additional manned airmanship experience of a commercially

certificated pilot would not correlate to the airmanship skills necessary for Cory L . Kersey ’s specific proposed flight operations. The FAA has previously

granted relief from Section 61.113 (a) and (b) specific to UAS, in circumstances similar, in all material respects, to those presented herein (e.g. Exemption Nos. 11062, 11063, 11064, 11065, 11066, 11067, 11080, 11109, 11110, 11112, 11136, 11138, 11150, 11153, 11156, 11158, 11159, 11160, 11 161). Cory L . Kersey will not allow any PIC to operate the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional

or DJ I Inspire 1 UAS unless that PI C has demonstrated, by meeting minimum flight

- hour requirements or the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional or DJ I Inspire 1 UAS training and

cu rrency requirements, that the PI C is able to safely operate the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional or DJ I Inspire 1 UAS in a manner consistent with this exemption, including evasive and emergency

maneuvers and maintaining appropriate distances from people, vessels , vehicles and structures. Specificall y, the PI C must have accumulated and logged, in a manner consistent with 14 C.F.R. § 61.51(b), 25 hours of total time as a UAS rotorcraft pilot (with a minimum of 5 hours of those hours as a UAS pilot operating the same make and model of28

UAS to be used for operations under the exemption). In addition to the hour requirements, the PI C must accomplish 3 takeoffs and landings in the preceding 90 day s (for currency purposes). As in Exemption Nos. 11062, 11138, and 11153, prior documented flight
expe rience that was obtained in compliance with applicable regulations will ensure an equivalent level of safet y during Cory L . Kersey ’s proposed operations. The Administrator has held that prior documented flight experience that was obtained in compliance wit h applicable regulations would ensure safe operations, stating as follows: In Exemption No. 11062, the FAA required that prior to conducting operations for the purpose of motion picture filming (or similar operations), the PIC must have accumulated and lo gged, in a manner consistent with 14 CFR 61.51(b), 25 hours of total time as a UAS rotorcraft pilot including at least 10 hours logged as a UAS pilot with a multi

- rotor UAS. Prior to operations under Exemption No. 11062, the PI C must also have accumulated and logged a minimum of 5 hours as a UAS pilot operating the same make and model of UAS to be used for operations under the exemption. For clarification, the FAA considers these minimum hour requirements to be inclusive rather than additive; i.e. 5 hours m ake and model time may be included in the 10 hours of multi

- rotor time and the 10 hours may be included in the total 25 hours of UAS rotorcraft time. In addition to the hour requirements, the PI C must accomplish 3 takeoffs and landings in the preceding 90 day s (for currency purposes). The FAA finds that at a minimum, the flight

- hour requirements in Exemption No. 11062 are appropriate to practice and build proficiency in the skills necessary

to safely conduct the petitioner’s proposed operations. The FAA als o finds that prior documented flight experience that was obtained in compliance with applicable regulations would satisfy this requirement. Training, proficiency , and experience

- building flights can also be conducted under the grant of exemption to accompl ish the required flight time. During training, proficiency , and experience

- building flights the PI C is required to operate the UA with appropriate distances in accordance with 14 C.F.R 91.119. Exemption No. 11138 at page 15. Accordingl y, Cory

L . Kersey will ensure safe operations by not allowing any

PI C to operate the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional or DJ I Inspire 1 UAS unless that PI C has demonstrated, b y meeting minimum flight

- hour and currency requirements, that the PI C is able to safel y operate the DJI Phantom 3 Professional or DJ I Inspire 1 UAS in a manner29

consistent with the exemption, including evasive and emergency maneuvers and maintaining appropriate distances from people, vessels, vehicles and structures. **3. Reasons Why An Exemption From The Requ irements Of Section 91.7(a)**  **Would Not Adversely Affect Safety.** The equivalent level of safet y established b y Section 91.7(a) will be maintained because prior to every

flight, Cory

L . Kersey will ensure that the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional or DJ I Inspire 1 UAS is in an airworthy condition based upon the UAS’s compliance with its operating documents and as stated in the conditions and limitations herein. Additionally , the FAA has previously granted relief from Section 91.7(a) specific to UAS, in circumstanc es similar, in all material respects, to those presented herein (e.g. Exemption Nos. 11062, 11063, 11064, 11065, 11066, 11067, 11080, 11109, 11110, 11112, 11136, 11138, 11150, 11153, 11156, 11157, 11158, 11159, 11160, 11161). **4. Reasons Why An Exemption F rom The Requirements Of Section 91.121**  **Would Not Adversely Affect Safety.** The equivalent level of safet y established b y Section 91.121 will be maintained because the altitude information of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I In spire 1 UAs will be pro vided to the PIC via GPS equipment and a radio communications telemetry data link, which downlinks from the UA to the GCS for active monitoring of the flight path and altitude. This altitude information, combined with Cory L . Kersey ’s operation of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1 UAs within visual line of sight, at or below 500 feet AGL, will ensure a level of safet y equivalent to Section 91.121. The altitude information will be generated b y GPS equipment installed onboard the aircraft. Prio r to each flight, a zero altitude initiation point is automatically established by

the UASs at ground level.30 The FAA has previously

granted relief from Section 91.121 specific to UAS, in circumstances similar, in all material respects, to those presented herein (e.g. Exemption Nos. 11062, 11063, 11064, 11065, 11066, 11067, 11080, 11109, 11112, 11136, 11138, 11150, 11153, 11156, 11157, 11158, 11159, 11160, 11161). **5. Reasons Why An Exemption From The Requirements Of Section 91.151(b) Would Not Adversely Af**  **fect Safety.** A grant of this exemption would ensure an equivalent level of safety established by 14 C.F.R. Section 91.151(b) as a result of (1) the technical specifications of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1 UASs; (2) the limitations on the proposed flight operations; and (3) the location of the proposed flight operations. Accordingl y, Cory L

. Kersey will ensure that it will safely operate the battery

powered DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UAs during day light hours in VFR co nditions, with enough battery power to fly

for a total duration of 13.5 minutes to the first point of intended landing and, assuming normal cruising speed, to fly after that for at least 4.5 minutes. Here, as in Exemption No. 11109, the technical specific ations of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs; the limitations on the proposed flight operations; and the location of the proposed operations, will ensure an equivalent level of safet y established by

14 C.F.R. Section 91.151(b). Furthermore, safet y will be ensured as the DJ I Phantom 3 Professiona l and DJI I nspire 1 UASs provide audible and visual warnings to the
PI C at the GCS when the UAs experiences low battery voltage, the first warning occurring at approximately

33% remaining battery

power, and again at approximately 10% remaining battery

powe r. At the criticall y low battery level, the DJ I Phantom Vision+ and
DJI I nspire 1 UASs will descend and land automatically

.31 Significantl y, previous exemptions granted b y the FAA concerning Section 91.151 establish that safet y is not adversel y affected whe n the technical characteristics and operating limitations of the UAS are considered. Relief has been granted for manned aircraft to operate at less than the minimums prescribed in Section 91.151, including Exemption Nos. 2689, 5745, and 10650. Moreover, th e FAA has previously granted relief from Section 91.151 specific to UAS, in circumstances similar, in all material respects, to those presented herein (e.g. Exemption Nos. 8811, 10808, 10673, 11042, 11062, 11063, 11064, 11065, 11066, 11067, 11080, 11109, 1 1110, 11136, 11138, 11150, 11153, 11156, 11157, 11158, 11159, 11160, 11161). **6. Reasons Why An Exemption From The Requirements Of Sections 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a)(2), And 91.417(a) & (b) Would**  **Not Adversely Affect Safety.** In seeking this exemption, Cory L . Kersey submits that the equivalent level of safet y with regard to the regulatory maintenance and alteration requirements established by Sections 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a)(2), and 91.417(a) & (b) will be met because Cory

L . Kersey will use trained technicians to perform maintenance, alterations, or preventive maintenance on the UASs using the methods, techniques, and practices prescribed in the operating documents (i.e., the Cory L . Kersey Aerial Operation s Manual, Monthly Maintenance Log, and DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 Instruction Manual). Furthermore, Cory L . Kersey will document and maintain all maintenance records for the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1 UASs. Since the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs will be inspected as prescribed b y the operating documents, Cory L . Kersey will maintain the equivalent level of safet y established by Sections 91.405(a), 91.409(a)(1), and 91.409(a)(2). A cop y of the
DJI Pha ntom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 User Manuals are attached hereto as Exhibit32

C and D; a cop y of the DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UAS Maintenance LOG is attached hereto as Exhibit E. Likewise, the exemption sought will not adversel y af fect safety

because Cory

L

. Kersey will use trained technicians to perform maintenance, alterations or preventive maintenance on the UAS using the methods, techniques, and practices prescribed by the operating documents. Furthermore, the exemption sought would maintain an equivalent level of safet y established by

Sections 91.407, 91.417(a) and 91.417(b), because all maintenance of the
DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs will be performed b y t rained technicians. Maintenance will be documented and maintained utilizing the monthly maintenance log. Significantl y, previous exemptions granted b y the FAA concerning Sections 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a)(2), and 91.417(a) & (b) establish that safet y is not adversel y affected when the te chnical characteristics and operating limitations of the UAS are considered. In consideration of Cory

L . Kersey ’s proposed operating limitations, the operating documents, and the technical aspects of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1 UASs, Cory

L . Kersey submits that safety will not be adversel y affected b y granting exemption from 14 C.F.R. Sections 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1) and (a)(2), 91.409(a)(2), and 91.417(a) and (b). The FAA has previousl y granted relief specific to UAS in circumstances similar, in all material respects, to those presented herein (e.g. Exemption Nos. 11062, 11063, 11064, 11065, 11066, 11067, 11080, 11109, 11110, 11112, 11136, 11138, 11150, 11153, 11156, 11157, 11158, 11159, 11160, 11161).33 **7. The FAA May Prescribe Any Oth er Conditions For Safe Operation.**  In accordance with Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (FMRA) and 14 C.F.R. § 21.16 entitled Special Conditions , Cory L . Kersey requests that the FAA prescribe special conditions for the intended operation of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs, which contain such safet y standards that the Administrator finds necessary to establish a level of safet y equivalent to that established b y 14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H, and 14 C.F.R §§ 61.113(a) & (b), 91.7 (a), 91.121, 91.151(b), 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a)(2), and 91.417(a) & (b). Such special conditions will permit safe operation of the UAs for the limi ted purpose of conducting aerial video and photograph y over certain areas of the United States for compensation or hire. FMRA Section 333 sets forth the requirements for considering whether a UAS will create a hazard to users of the NAS or the public, or o therwise pose a threat to national security; and further, provides the authority for such UAS to operate without airworthiness certification in accordance with any requirements that must be established for the safe operation of the UAS in the NAS. Likewis e, the Administrator may prescribe special conditions pursuant to 14 C.F.R. § 21.16, for operation of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs, since the airworthiness regulations of 14 C.F.R. Part 21 do not contain adequate or appropriate saf et y standards, due to the novel or unusual design features of the aircraft. Section 21.16, entitled Special Conditions , states the following: If the FAA finds that the airworthiness regulations of this subchapter do not contain adequate or appropriate saf et y standards for an aircraft, aircraft engine, or propeller because of a novel or unusual design feature of the aircraft, aircraft engine or propeller, he prescribes special conditions and amendments thereto for the product. The special conditions are iss ued in accordance with Part 11 of this chapter and contain such safety

standards for the aircraft, aircraft engine or propeller as the34 FAA finds necessary

to establish a level of safety equivalent to that established in the regulations. See 14 C.F.R. § 2 1.16. Therefore, in accordance with FMRA Section 333 and 14 C.F.R. § 21.16, the FAA
may prescribe special conditions for L eading Edge’s intended operation of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1 UASs, which contain such safety standards that th e Administrator finds necessary to establish a level of safet y equivalent to that established by

14 C.F.R. Part 21, Subpart H, and 14 C.F.R Sections 61.113(a) & (b), 91.7(a), 91.121, 91.151(b), 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a)(2), and 91.417(a) & (b).
**F. A Summary That Can Be Published In The**  **Federal Register, stating: The Rules**  **From Which Cory L. Kersey**  **Seeks Exemption:** Cory L. Kersey seeks exemption from the requirements of 14 C.F.R Sections 61.113(a)&(b), 91.7(a), 91.121, 91.151(b), 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a )(2), and 91.417(a) & (b). **A Brief Description Of The Nature Of The Exemption Cory L. Kersey**  **Seeks:** This exemption will permit Cory L. Kersey to commercially operate an Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) for the purpose of conducting aerial video and photography over certain areas of the United States. **G. Any Additional Information, Views, Or Arguments Available To Support**  **Cory L. Kersey**  **’s Request.**  This Petition is made pursuant to the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (FMRA) Section 333, which directs the Secretary of Transportation to determine if certain UAS may operate safely

in the NAS. As such, Cory L . Kersey ’s request for exemption

m ay be granted pursuant to the authority of FMRA Section 333 and 14 C.F.R. Part 11, as set forth above.35 FMRA Section 333 sets forth the requirements for considering whether a UAS will create a hazard to users of the NAS or the public, or otherwise pose a t hreat to national securit y; and further, provides the authority for such UAS to operate without airworthiness certification. As discussed in detail above, Cory L . Kersey will operate the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs safel y in the NAS, without creating a hazard to users of the NAS, or the public, or otherwise pose a threat to national securit y. **CONCLUSION** As set forth herein, Cory

L . Kersey seeks an exemption pursuant to 14 C.F.R. § 11.61 and S ection 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (FMRA), which will permit safe operation of the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I In spire 1 UASs commerciall y, without an airworthiness certificate, for the limited purpose of conducting aerial vi deo and photograph y over certain areas of the United States. By granting this Petition, the FAA Administrator will be fulfilling the Congressional mandate of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012, while also advancing the interests of the public, by allowing Cory L . Kersey to safel y, efficientl y, and economically operate the
DJI Phantom 3 Professional and DJ I Inspire 1 UASs commercially within the NAS. **WHEREFORE** , in accordance with the Federal Aviation Regulations and the FAA Modernization and Refor m Act of 2012, Section 333, Cory L . Kersey respectfully

requests that the Administrator grant this Petition for an exemption from the requirements of 14 C.F.R Sections 61.113(a) & (b), 91.7(a), 91.121, 91.151(b), 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a) (2), and 91.417(a) & (b), and permit L eading Edge to operate the DJ I Phantom 3 Professional and DJI I nspire 1 UASs commercially for the purpose of36

conducting aerial video and photograph y over certain areas of the United States.
