. Washington, DC 20590 I, Rick Dorrian Flores , hereby submit this petition for exemption under Section 333; FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012, Public Law 112

- 95 FEB. 14, 2012, Section 333. I kindly request this exemption in order to operate my UAV/s UAS, DJI Phantom 3 Professional Quadcopter Aircraft, FAA Registration # FA3W 7YF9XE , for the purpose of aerial data collection in order to provide services for profit to include aerial photography, aerial cinematography, aerial filming a nd photography for real estate (residential and commercial), construction firms, agricultural modeling, crop monitoring operations, aerial mapping, s pecial events to include but not limited to weddings, private or public parties/events, business advertising, promotional events, special county park events, geolog ical surveying, everglades environmental studies, everglades mapping, filming, and wildlife photography.
The ability to provide these services to other local businesses andindividuals in my community will benefit them by openi ng up

opportunities they otherwise did not have before. Traditional methods of aerial photography/videography are simply n ot viable options for the average consumer as they are costly and involve greater risks to everyone involved; i.e. the use o f larger aircraft carrying people and flammable fuel. By utilizing the UAV/s UAS, the same results can be achieved with much safer conditions. Prior to each flight/operation of the UAV/s UAS, I will conduct a Pre

Flight Safety Inspection. Only the manufacturer's authorized repair facilities/providers will perform any and all repairs. Flights will not take place over dens ely populated areas or private property without the owner's permission. The UAV/s UAS will only be operated within visual line of sight (VLOS) and will not be flown near airports or above 400 feet AGL. The FAA can be confident that operations of this UAV/s UAS will achieve at least the equivalent or greater level of safety. T he UAV weighs less than 55lbs. All flights will be terminated at 20% of remaining battery life, which can be monitored remotely, along with other live in

- flight data including altitude, airspeed, GPS location, and groundspeed. The speed of the UAV/s UAS will never exceed 25 MPH at any given time during operation. All safety factors will be diligently and closely followed at al l times. All component recommendations, precautions, and suggestions in the UAV/s UAS instruction manual will be strictly followed and never deviated from . The DJI Ph antom 3 Professional Quadcopter Aircraft will be safely operated at all times.
The specific sections of 14 C.F.R from which I am seeking exemptionare as follows:

14 C.F.R. Part 21; 14 C.F.R. 45.23(b); 14 C.F.R. 61.101(e)(4), & (5); 14 C.F.R. 61.113(a) & (b); 14 C.F.R. 61.133 (a); 14 C.F.R. 61.23(a) & (c); 14 C.F.R 91.7(a) 14 C.F.R. 91.9(b)(2); 14C.F.R. 91.109(a); 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) & (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 C.F.R. 91.417(a) & (b). Thank you for your consideration regarding this matter. Respectfully , Rick Dorrian Flores
