Subject: CNN Petition to Amend Exemption No. 12174B (Docket No. FAA-2015-1851) 

To Whom It May Concern:

Cable News Network, Inc. (“CNN”), through its undersigned counsel, hereby seeks 

an amendment of its Exemption No. 12174, granted on July 27, 2015, and thereafter 

amended on November 5, 2015, and December 3, 2015, authorizing CNN to operate 

unmanned aircraft (“UAS”) to conduct aerial photography, aerial videography, and closed-set 

motion picture and television filming.1 2 CNN specifically requests an amendment to the 

Exemption to authorize the use of additional UAS models and to modify the requirements for 

submitting a written Plan of Activities to the local Flight Standards District Office (“FSDO”) 

prior to conducting closed-set aerial filming. 

I. REQUESTED AMENDMENT TO LIMITATION NO. 1 

CNN requests an amendment to allow operation of the previously approved vehicles 

identified in Attachment 1 and Attachment 2 to the Amended Measure Exemption (and 

attached to this Petition as Appendix A). See, e.g., Exemption No. 12646A (November 19, 

2015; Docket FAA-2015-1602) (“Amended Measure Exemption”). Limitation No. 1 of the 

Exemption provides, in part, that “[p]roposed operations of any other aircraft will require a 

 

1

The FAA has granted two amendments to the Exemption authorizing the operation of additional 

UAS models under the Exemption. See Exemption No. 12174A, issued November 5, 2015 and 

Exemption No. 12174B, issued December 3, 2015. 

2 On February 4, 2016, CNN filed a Second Amendment to Exemption No. 12174 to permit the 

Fotokite Pro to be flown in congested areas pursuant to 14 CFR § 91.119(b), and at closer 

distances to nonparticipating persons, vehicles and structures under § 91.119(c). This Second 

Amendment to Exemption No. 12174 remains pending.

new petition or petition to amend this exemption.” Accordingly, CNN requests an 

amendment to the Exemption so that it can operate additional UAS models, including the 

vehicles listed in Appendix A of this Petition. Specifically, CNN requests that Limitation No. 1 

in the Exemption be revised to the following:

“1. Operations authorized by this grant of exemption are limited to the Drone 

Aviation Corporation’s Watt 200 ETAP, CyPhy Works Persistent Aerial 

Reconnaissance and Communication System (PARC), 3DR Solo, 

AirRobot AR180, DJI Inspire 1, DJI Phantom 2 Vision, Altus Delta X-8, 

Fotokite Pro UAS and all aircraft approved by the Secretary of the 

Department of Transportation for operation under Section 333 (Appendix 

A) 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.”3

The requested amendment to Limitation No. 1 of the Exemption only seeks to add 

small UAS models that the FAA is familiar with and has already approved for aerial data 

collection and/or closed-set filming in previously granted exemptions. In the Amended 

Measure Exemption, the FAA determined that the vehicles identified in Attachment 1 and 

Attachment 2 to the Amended Measure Exemption (and attached to this Petition as Appendix 

A) warranted approval for operation under Section 333 of FMRA.

II. REQUESTED AMENDMENT TO LIMITATION NO. 30

CNN requests two amendments to Limitation No. 30 of the Exemption. First, CNN 

seeks an amendment reducing the notification period for submitting a written Plan of 

Activities to the local FSDO in advance of aerial filming from 3 days to 24 hours. Limitation 

No. 30 of the Exemption currently provides, in part, that “[a]t least 3 days before aerial 

filming, the operator of the UAS affected by this exemption must submit a written Plan of 

Activities to the local Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) with jurisdiction over the area of 

proposed filming. The 3-day notification may be waived with the concurrence of the FSDO.” 

CNN requests that the above referenced portion of Limitation No. 30 be revised to the 

following:

“30. At least 24 hours prior to aerial filming, the operator must submit a written Plan 

of Activities to the local Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) having 

jurisdiction over the proposed operating area. The 24-hour notification may be 

waived with the concurrence of the FSDO.” 

The requested amendment reducing the FSDO notification period from 3 days to 24 

hours will not adversely affect safety and is consistent with the FAA’s recent grant of 

exemption to Cape Productions, Inc. See, Exemption No. 11433A (December 29, 2015; 

Docket FAA-2015-0223) (“Amended Cape Productions Exemption”). In the Amended Cape 

Productions Exemption the FAA found that the requirement to have an operations manual 

 

3

The Drone Aviation Corporation’s Watt 200 ETAP, 3DR Solo, AirRobot AR180, DJI Inspire 1, 

DJI Phantom 2 Vision, and Altus Delta X-8 are on the list of UAS from the Amended Measure 

Exemption, but are nonetheless repeated in this proposed condition/limitation as the FAA has 

already expressly approved them for use by CNN for commercial operations. The CyPhy Works 

Persistent Aerial Reconnaissance and Communication System (PARC), and Fotokite Pro UAS 

are not included in the Amended Measure Exemption list, but have been previously approved for 

use by CNN in Exemption No. 12174A and Exemption No. 12174B, respectively.

with certain conditions and limitations, including the requirement to submit a written Plan of 

Activities to the local FSDO having jurisdiction over the proposed operating area at least 24 

hours prior to operations, “helps ensure that safety will not be adversely affected because 

the operator must document and address operational safety practices relevant to its 

operation.” Amended Cape Productions Exemption at 6-7. See also Exemption No. 13465A 

(November 20, 2015; Docket FAA-2014-1088) (“Amended Kansas State University 

Exemption”) at 13. 

Like Cape Productions and Kansas State University, CNN has a UAS Operations 

Manual with the same required conditions and limitations. Accordingly, and consistent with 

FAA determinations in the Amended Cape Productions Exemption and the Amended 

Kansas State University Exemption, the safety practices and procedures in CNN’s UAS 

Operations Manual, including a requirement to submit a written Plan of Activities to the local 

FSDO with jurisdiction over the area of the closed-set filming, will ensure that the planned 

operation can be conducted safely while providing 24-hour advance FSDO notification. 

CNN also requests an amendment to subsection (a) of Limitation No. 30, which 

requires the Plan of Activities to include dates and times for all flights. In the Amended Cape 

Productions Exemption and the Amended Kansas State University Exemption, the FAA 

clarified that for seasonal or long-term operations, the dates and times provided in the Plan 

of Activities could include beginning and end dates of the timeframe, the approximate 

frequency, and the times of the day when the operations will occur. See Limitation No. 29, 

subsection (a) of the Amended Cape Productions Exemption and the Amended Kansas 

State University Exemption. CNN seeks to incorporate the same clarifying language into 

Limitation No. 30, subsection (a), of its Exemption. Specifically, CNN requests that 

subsection (a) to Limitation No. 30 of the Exemption be revised to the following: 

“a. Dates and times for all flights. For seasonal or long-term operations, this can

include the beginning and end dates of the timeframe, the approximate 

frequency (e.g. daily, every weekend, etc.), and what times of the day 

operations will occur. A new Plan of Activities must be submitted prior to each 

season or period of operations.”

The proposed amendment to Limitation No. 30, subsection (a), of the Exemption is 

identical to the condition language used in the Amended Cape Productions Exemption and 

the Amended Kansas State University Exemption. Consistent with the FAA’s findings and 

analysis contained therein, the clarifying language sought by CNN in this Petition would not 

create a hazard to users of the National Airspace System or the public, nor would it pose a 

threat to national security. Moreover, it would not adversely affect safety, but rather would 

provide at least an equivalent level of safety to that provided by the regulations from which 

exemption is sought. 

III. PUBLIC INTEREST AND SAFETY JUSTIFICATION 

Consistent with previously granted amendments to the Exemption, CNN submits that 

the public interest and safety reasons underlying the FAA’s grant of the Exemption remain 

equally valid and applicable to support the requested amendments to the Exemption. 

Accordingly, to the extent necessary, CNN refers the FAA to, and incorporates herein, its 

original petition for exemption filed in May 2015 in this docket for a listing of the regulations 

from which the petition sought an exemption, as well as the demonstrations of the public 

interest and equivalent level of safety justifying the original Exemption.

IV. PUBLICATION NOTICE OF THIS PETITION FOR AMENDMENT IS NOT 

NECESSARY 

As this is an amendment to an existing Exemption that only seeks to (i) add 

additional UAS models that the FAA has already found warrant approval under Section 333 

of FMRA, and (ii) modify the requirements for submitting a written Plan of Activities to the 

local FSDO prior to closed-set filming in a manner consistent with previously granted 

exemptions under Section 333 of FMRA, the requested amendment would not set any new 

precedent. Moreover, any delay in acting on this Petition would negatively impact CNN’s 

changing operational needs. Accordingly, CNN submits that good cause exists for not 

publishing a summary of the Petition in the Federal Register. 

V. CONCLUSION

For the foregoing reasons, CNN respectfully requests that the FAA refrain from 

publishing a summary of this Petition in the Federal Register, and grant this Petition for an 

Amendment to the Exemption without delay. Should you have any questions, or if you need 

additional information to support the requested amendments to the Exemption, please do 

hesitate to contact us.
