DavidHooperates this UNMANNEDAIRCRAFTSYSTEMS (UAS) with in mind that safety, stability and fear ofdetrimental financial loss, I will notfly in winds exceeding 13 knots (15 mph). Built in safety systems include a GPS mode that allows my UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) to hover in place when radio controls are released. This is the safest, most dependable and unwavering mode toprevent accident and hazard. When pilot communication is lost UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) is designed to slowly descend to point of origination, the UNMANNED AIRCRAFTSYSTEMS(UAS) has a function thatinstantaneouslyvideo records once communication is lost. I do not and will not operate my UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) near airports, Hospitals or helipads, and do not operate near areas where generalpublic is one hundred (100) yards depending on location, conditions andweather.

Depriving, many others of the smallerbusinessperson from exploiting a valuable advertisingtool. Manned aircraft exposes a superior hazard to thepublic through conceivable cataclysmic crash causing loss to property and or life. UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) pose no such hazards due its size, speed andnonexistence offlammable fuel significantly reduces any potential threatto the public.

David Ho's operating procedures exceeding extstmg rules. First, the possible loss of life is lessened because

UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS)'s carry no pilots orpassengers on board and I only operate my UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) safely in the direct detailed areas ofoperation versus fixed wing or helicopter requires travel to the region of need. Second, there 

### is no fuel on board an UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) and thus the probability for tire or explosions is significantly diminished. Lastley, the small size and extremely maneuverability ofmy UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) allow me to remotelypilot away fl·om hazards quickly andsafely.

### A Summary The FAAMayPublishintheFederalRegister:

14 C.F.R. 21 and 11· C.F.R. 91: Airworthiness Certificates, Manuals andtheLike.

11- C.F.R. 21, Subpart H, entitled Airworthiness Certificates, sets forth requirements for procurement of necessary airworthiness certificates in relation to FAR 

### §91.20.3(a)( 1 ). The size, weightandenclosed operational areaofmy, David Ho's, UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) permits exemption fi·om Part 21 because my UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) meets (and exceeds) an equivalent level of safety pursuant to Section**s.~s** of the Reform Act. The FAA is authorized to exempt aircraft fi·om the airworthiness certificate requirement under both the Act (1·9 U.S.C. 

### § 14-70 I (f)) and Section .333 of theReformAct. Bothpieces oflegislationpermitthe FAA toexempt UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS)'s fi·om the airworthiness certificate requirement in consideration ofthe weight, size, speed, maneuverability and proximity to areas such as airports and dense populations. My, David Ho's, current andprojected UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS)'s meetorexceed each ofthe details.

14 C.F.R. 91.7(a) prohibits the operation of an aircraft without an airworthiness certificate. As no such certificate will be applicable in the form contemplated by the FARs, this Regulation is inapplicable.

11· C.F.R. 

### §91.9 (b) (2) requires an aircraft Hight manual in the aircraft. As there are no on board pilots or passengers, and given the size ofthe UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS)'s, this Regulation is inapplicable. An equivalent level of safety will be achieved by maintaining safety/flight manual delineating areas of where safety can be defined.(See Enclosed) The FAA has previously issued exemptions to this regulation in Exemption Nos. 8607, 8737, 8738,9299, 92il9A, 9565, 9565B, 10167, 10lfi7A, 10G02, 10700 and:J2827.

11- C.F.R. 

### § 91.121 regarding altimeter settings is inapplicable insofar as my UNMANNEDAIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) utilizes electronic global positioning systems with a barometricsensor. 11· C.F.R. 

### § 91.203 (a) and (b) provides for the carrying of civil aircraft certif!cations and registrations. They are inapplicable for the same reasons described above. The equivalent level ofsafety will be achieved by maintaining any such required certifications and registrations by me, David Ho.
1'1 C.F.R. 

### § 1·5.2:3: Markingofthe Aircraft.
Applicable Codes of Federal Regulation require aircraft to be marked according to certain specifications. My UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) are, by definition, unmanned. They therefore do not have a cabin,

Further, two-inch letterin)S is difl'icult to place on such small aircraft with dimensions smaller that minimal lettering requirement. Regardless, I will mark its UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS)s in the largest possible lettering by placing the word "EXPERIMENTAL" on its fuselage as required by 11- C.F.R. §1·5.29 (f) so that I the pilot, or anyone assisting me as a spotter with the UAV will see the markings. The FAA has previously issued exemptions tothis regulation through Exemptions Nos. 8738, 10167, 10 1G7A and\0700. 14 C.F.R. § Gl.l13: Private PilotPrivileges and Limitations:PIC. Pursuant to 11· C.F.R. §§ 61.113 (a) & (b), private pilots are limited to non-commercial operations. I, David Ho, can achieve an equivalentlevel ofsafetyas achievedbycurrent Regulations becausemy UNMANNEDAIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) does not carry any pilots or passengers. Further, while helpful, a pilot license will not ensure remotecontrolpilotingskills.The risks attended to the operation of my UNMANNEDAIRCRAFTSYSTEMS (UAS) is far less than the risk levels inherent in the commercial activities outlined in H· C.F.R. § G1, et seq. Thus, allowing me, David Ho, to operate my UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) meet and exceed current safety levels in relation to H C.F.R. §G 1.113 (a) & (b).

11- C.F.R. 91.119: MinimumSafe Altitudes.

11· C.F.R. § 91.119 prescribes safe altitudes for the operation ofcivil aircraft. It allows helicopters to be operated at lower altitudes in certain conditions. My UNMANNEDAIRCRAFTSYSTEMS (UAS) will never operate at an altitude gt·eater than 200 ABOVE GROUND LEVEL; safely below the standard of 1·00 ABOVE GROUND LEVEL. I, David Ho, will however operate my UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) in safe areas away fi·om public andtrafflc, providing a level ofsafety at least equivalent to orbelow those in relation to minimum safe altitudes. Given the size, weight, maneuverability and speed ofmy UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS), an equivalent or higherlevel ofsafety will beachieved. 11· C.F.R. 91.1·05 (a); 1·07 (a)(!); 1·ml (a) (2); 1·17(a) & (b): Maintenance Inspections. Theabove-cited Regulations require, amongstotherthings, aircraft owners and operatorsto "have [the] aircraftinspected as prescribed in subpart E ofthis part and shall between required inspections, except as provided in paragraph (c) ofthis section, have discrepancies repaired as prescribed in part 1·3 ofthis chapter.

..."
These Regulations only applytoaircraft withan airworthiness certificate. Theywill not, therefore, applytomy, DavidHo's, UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS). However, as a safeguard I inspect my UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) beforehand and afterward each flight.

Summary the FAA MayPublish in the Federal Register: A. 11· C.F.R. 21 and 14 C.F.R. 91: Airworthiness Certificates, Manuals and the Like. 11- C.F.R. 21, Subpart H, entitled Airworthiness Certificates, sets f(Jrth requirements torprocurement ofnecessary airworthiness certificates in relation to FAR§ 91.203(a)(1 ). The size, weight and enclosed operational area ofmy UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) permitexemption fl·om Part 21 because my, David Ho's, UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS) meets an equivalent level of safety pursuant to Section**3.~~3** ofthe Reform Act.

C.F.R. 

### §91.9 (b) (2) requires an aircraftflight manual in the aircraft. As there are nopilots orpassengers, and given the size ofthe UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS)'s, this Regulation is inapplicable. An equivalent level ofsafety will be achieved by maintaining a manual. The FAA has previously issued exemptions to this regulation in Exemption Nos. 8607, 8737, 8738, 9299, 929>JA, 9565, 9565B, 10167, maintenance program that involves regular software updates and curative measures for any damaged hardware. Therefore, an equivalent level ofsafety will be achieved.
