– 2199

Mr. James J. Guidici 19 Sugar Maple Court Lake in the Hills, IL 60156

Dear Mr. Guidici :
This letter is to inform you that we have granted your request for exemption. It transmits our decision, explains its basis, and gives you the conditions and limitations of the exemption, including the date it ends.

By letter dated May 20, 2015 , you petitioned the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for an exemption . The petitioner requested to operate an unmanned ai rcraft system (UAS) to

con duct aerial data collection

. See Appendix A for the petition submitted to the FAA des cribing 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 proposed by the petitioner is a DJI Phantom 2 Vision+

. The petitioner requested relief from 14 CFR part 21, C ertification procedures for products and parts, Subpart H

— Airworthiness Certificates

. 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 Transportation has determined that this aircraft meets the conditions of Section 33 3. Therefore, the FAA finds that the requested relief from2

14 CFR part 21

, C ertification procedures 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

− 2014

− 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. James J. Guidici 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 th e 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. James J. Guidici 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, R F analysis, etc.), chemical measurement (particulate 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 exemption are limited to the DJI Phantom 2 Vision+ 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. Op erations 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 dete rmine 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 designated 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 operations 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 Administrato r 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 m ust follow the procedures as outlined in its operating documents. The operator may update or revise its operating documents. It is the operator’s responsibility to track such revisions and present updated and revised documents to the Administrator or any law enforcement official upon request. The4

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 which 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. An y 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 people. 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. Prior 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 insp ection must account for all potential discrepancies, e.g.

, inoperable components, items, or equipment. If the inspection reveals a condition that affects the safe operation of the UAS, the aircraft is prohibited from operating until the necessary maintena nce has been performed and the UAS is found to be in a condition for safe flight.

11. The operator must follow the UAS manufacturer’s maintenance, overhaul, replacement, inspection, and life limit requirements for the aircraft and aircraft components.

12. Each U AS operated under this exemption must comply with all manufacturer safety bulletins.

13. Under this grant of exemption, a PIC must hold either an airline transport, commercial, private, recreational, or sport pilot certificate. The PIC must also hold a

curre nt FAA airman medical certificate or a valid U.S. driver’s license issued by a state, the District of Col u mbia, Puerto 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 appropriate distances from persons, vessels, vehicles and structures. PIC qualification flight hours and currency must be logged in a manner consistent with 14 CFR § 61.51(b). Fli ghts for the purposes of training the operator’s PICs and VOs5

(traini ng, proficiency, 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 per mitted 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 visu al meteorological conditions (VMC). Flights under special visual flight rules (SVFR) 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 exempti on holder. The letter of agreement with the airport management must be made available 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 beginning 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 f or at least five minutes or with the reserve power recommended by the manufacturer 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
exemp tion holder may apply for a new or amended COA if it intends to conduct operations 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 acc ordance with 14 CFR part 47, and have identification (N− Number) markings in accordance 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 doc uments 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 requ est.

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 nonparticipating 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 remain 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 un due 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/control ler 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. Accidents must be reported to the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) per instructions contained on the NTSB Web site: www.ntsb.gov

Jersey Ave., SE Wa shington, DC 20590

Re: Summary Exem ption Request under Section 333 of the FAA Reform Act and Part 11 of the Federal Aviation Regulations from certain parts of the FARs.

Dear Adm inistrator Huerta:

Pursuant to Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (the Reform Act) and 14 C.F.R. Part 11, Jam es J. Guidici ( or the “Petitioner”), hereby applies for a summary

exem ption from the listed Federal Aviation Regulations (“FARs”) to allow him to operate sm a ll Unm anned Aircraft System s (“ UAS”) for aerial data collection, under the conditions and lim itations set forth in this Petition.

The requested exem ption would perm it the operation of small, unm an ned and relatively inexpensive UAS under controlled conditions in airspace that is (1) lim ited, (2) predeterm ined, and (3) would provide safety enhancem ents to the already safe new s gathering operations presently using m anned helicopters and airplanes. Approval of this exemption w ould thereby enhance safety and fulfill the FAA Administrator’s responsibilities to “...establish requirem ents for the safe operation of such aircraf t system s in the national airspace system.” Section 333(c) of the Reform Act.

The Appendix describes the FARs from w hich an exem ption is requested and summarizes the justification for each requested exem ption.

The Petition is subm itted to fulfill Congress’ goal under Section 333(a) through (c) of the Reform Act, w hich directs the Secretary of Transportation to consider whether certain

unm anned aircraft systems m ay operate safely in the national airspace system (NAS) before

com pletion of the rulemaking required under Section 332 of the Reform Act. In making this determ ination, the Adm inistrator m ust determ ine wh i ch types of UASs do not create a hazard to users of the NAS or the public or pose a threat to national security in light of the following:

• The UAS’s size, w eight, speed, and operational capability; • Operation of the UAS in close proxim ity to airports and populated areas; and • Operation of the UAS within visual line of sight of the operator.

Reform Act § 333 (a).

If the Adminstrator determ ines that such vehicles “m ay operate safely in the national airspace system, the Secretary shall establish re quirem ents for the safe operation of such aircraft in the national airspace system.” Id. § 333(c) (em phasis added). The Secretary has delegated his aviation authority to the Adm inistrator of the FAA. The Federal Aviation Act expressly grants the FAA the au thority to grant exem ptions from its regulatory requirem ents for civil aircraft, a term defined under §40101 of the Act, w hich includes sUASs. The Administrator may grant an

exem ption from a requirem ent of a regulation prescribed under subsection (a) or (b ) of this section or any sections 44702

- 44716 of the Federal Aviation Act if Administrator finds the

exem ption in the public interest. 49 U.S.C. § 44701(f) See also 49 USC § 44711(a); 49 USC § 44704; 14 CFR §91.203 (a) (1).**Summary of Request:**

As a long time radio control pilot, I am requesting an exception, and permission to use my UAS, DJ I Phantom 2 Vision+ (further in this report are the detailed specifications of the UAS), for the purpose of taking ae rial photos and videos for the home real estat e business, and for c ommercial businesses real estate property in the suburbs of the greater Chicago a rea. This is a technology that is perfect for r ealtors to help the potential home buy er get a better perspective of the home and neighborhood they

are co nsidering. This is important in the rural and suburban areas, where the homes ty picall y have a larger piece of real estate, with mature landscaping, large trees, and perhaps heavily wooded. Their view of the propert y will be greatl y enhanced, providing f or a perspecti ve never before seen. For the c ommercial business owner, it helps them show a complete view of perhaps acres of their property for TV/Internet commercials, and /or on their websites, ie: auto dea lers, enhancing their growth opportunities. I am also planning to purchase a DJ I Inspire 1 this summer. This UAS is similar in many way s to the DJ I Phanto m Vision 2+. The differences are that is has an enhanced camera with 4K filming capability , it has landing gear that retracts, and its weight is 6.5 lbs. (the specs for this UAS are also included).

**Why the exemption would not adversely affect safety:**

This can be done very

safely in a controlled environment, on private property , with limited airtime required, extremely

low noise, in uncongested areas. The UAS will alway s be operated in a Visual Line of Sight (VLOS) environment, with an observer, and alway s under 400 feet.

Prior to flight, I go through a “pre

- flight” checklist: 1. verify	propellers	are	properly	secured	and	not	damaged. 2. ensure	all	b atteries	are	fully	charged

a. UAS	battery b. Transmitter/controller	battery

c. Wi

- Fi	range	extender	battery 3. turn	on	transmitter	&	range	extender 4. turn	on	UAS	battery 5. initiate	a	“calibration”	procedure	for	the	Compass 6. place	UAS	in	a	safe	position	on	the	ground	for	t akeoff 7. turn	motors	on 8. verify	there	are	6	or	more	satellites	acquired 9. initiate	takeoff 10. hover	at	10

– 15	feet	and	verify	all	controls	are	operating	properly 11. initiate	flight	plan 12. upon completion	of	flight	plan,	ensure	a	safe	environment	exists	for	a	safe	landing,	and inspect	UAS	prior	to	another	flight	for	air	worthiness**Description of UAS:**

The DJ I Phantom Vision 2+ (UAS) operates on 5.8 GHz, and weighs 2.7 pounds. Serial # BF1613340486263. It has a very sophisticated flight control s ys tem (DJ I NAZA

– M V2), and includes a Gy

ro, Compass, GPS, and camera that is on a three axis gimbal. The flight s ys tem includes a “Failsafe” function, where if signal is lost, or interferenc e occurs with the controller, or it fly ’s out of range, the UAS will automatically return to its “home” position. I t also provides altitude & radius flight adjustment settings, for maximum height and distance.

It will also “altitude hold

- auto hover” i f radio control sticks are released. And, i n order to increase flight safety

and prevent accidental flights in restricted areas, the new firmware for the Phantom 2 series includes a “ No Fly Zone ” feature. These zones have been divided into two categories : A

- large international airports and, B

- small local airports. http://www.dji.com/fly

- safe/category

Exceeding the control range of the remote control will trigger ‘Return

- to

- Home’, meaning the Phant om 2 Vision+ will automatically fly back to its takeoff point and land safel y.
Using Wi

- Fi and a Wi

- Fi Range Extender, the camera transmits live video to my Apple iPhone 6 or iPad Mini 2, all of which comply with FCC requirements. The DJ I Vision App sh ows, altitude, direction of flight, distance from home, speed, location, number of satellites acquired, and battery level.

**Pilot in Command (PIC) Background and experience:** 

I have 30 years experience in flying radio control UAS aircraft, and have been fl yi ng radio control ai rplanes since the mid 80’s. My current inventory tota ls 30 electric aircraft, including fixed wing prop planes, mostly WWII war birds, EDF (electric ducted fan) jets, and multi

- copters. I am a Viet Nam veteran, USAF, and I am currently retired from the technology industry

. I have alway s been intrigued with any ne w technology , and generall y have alway s been an earl y adopter.

I am a member of the Academ y of Model Aeronautics, with a very good understanding of aeronautics, and I have alway s been an extremel y responsible UAS pilot. I am in great health. Being retired, and on a fixed income, I would like to take advantage of m y hobby skills, in a commercial way , to help generate additional revenue for living expenses. I have be en into video and photograph y, as a hobby , m y entire life. This new technology ties togeth er, both of my long time hobbies

. I am c urrently in process of getting my Sport Pilot Certificate, and I hold a valid drivers license from the S tate of I llinois.

**W hy the p**  **ublic would be served by granting this exemption:**

I believe this is a technology that can benefit realtors and c ommercial businesses, in a huge way

. The industry

is anxious to have this technology enhance their ability

to market properties from a totally new perspective, because the aerial perspective is very impressive. By

increasing their marketing potential it can increase home sales, benefiting Realtor, buy er and seller. Tha t is a win, win, win. For the c ommercial business owner, that new a erial perspective can increase market awareness and growth, with greater recognition of business message, ph ys ical presence, inventory (in the case of an auto dealer) and location.The Petition to use a UAS for aerial data collection and its proposed l imitations are similar in all

material respects to those approved b y the FAA in Grants of Exemption Nos. 11062 to Astraeus Aerial (see Docket No. FAA −2014−0352), 11109 to Clay co, Inc. (see Docket No. FAA −2014−0507), 11112 to VDOS Global, LLC (see Docket No . FAA −2014−0382), 11213 to Aery on Labs, Inc. (see Docket No. FAA −2014−0642) and 11310 to Colin Hinkle (see Docket No. FAA

- 2014

- 0608). In those grants the FAA found that the enhanced safet y achieved using an unmanned aircraft (UA) with the specifications de scribed b y the Petitioner and carry ing no passengers or crew, rather than a manned aircraft of significantly greater proportions, carry ing crew in addition to flammable fuel, gives the FAA good cause to find that the UAS operation enabled b y this exemption is in the public interest.

The reasons stated b y the FAA for granting Exemption Nos. 11062, 11109, 11112, 11213, and 11310 also apply

to the situation presented by this Petition.

Respectfully

Submitted,
