**Exemption petition under SEC 333 Your name and mailing address. You may include other contact information such as a fax**  **number, tel** **ephone number, or email address**: Name: Kenneth W. Yablonsky Address: 6 Warmspring Ln, Aliso Viejo, CA 92656 Phone: (562) 889-7370 Email:yablonsky@yahoo.com **The specific section or sections of 14 CFR f rom which you seek an exemption:**  Petition for Exemption under Sec 333 **The extent of relief you seek and the reason you seek the relie** **f:** Sec 333 prohibits the use of a UAS for commercial purposes on private property. I am petitioning for an exemption to provide a commercial service to private land owners and companies who wish to obtain and capture aerial photos and videos of said property for purposes including real estate listings, insurance property claims, facilitate inspections, and for use as a marketing tool for businesses. I would like to be able to accept payment for these services therefore making this a commercial use of a UAS. **How your request woul d benefit the public as a whole:**  My request benefits the public as a whole by providing an opportunity for business owners, real estate agents, and others who wish to document their land or property to take advantage of the technology that now exists in the form of UAS’s and allows them to do so using an experienced drone operator that understands how to safely operate such technology. **Reasons why the exemption would not adversely affect safety, or how the exemption would provide a**  **level of safety at l east equal to the existing rule:**  Having flown owned unmanned RC aircraft for over twenty (20) years and drones for over five (5)years and flying recreationally has made me experienced and extremely aware of any safety regulations. I am also a long standing member of the Academy of Model Aeronautics (Member ID 935887). I understand and recognize the importance of different uses and safety concerns regarding FAA regulated airspace, I am a good candidate for Exemption of Section 333 while not putting Air Safety in any accelerated risk. When flying for a commercial purpose I will be flying at a maximum altitude of 400 feet and flying vertically for the purposes of taking photos or filming, decreasing the risk of any interference. My existing knowledge of the aviation safety systems would be used to ensure that safety would not be affected by my operations. I would not be flying near disaster areas, sporting events, or high traffic areas including airports. I will only perform commercial operations in low

-risk, controlled environments and I would pay attention to NOTAMS. To insure the safety I shall proceed by ALWAYS executing the following:• Always keep aircraft in sight and under control.

• Always keep people and pets at least 35 feet away when the battery is connected. • Keep children out of the vicinity of this product at all times. • Always use fully charged batteries. • Always keep transmitter powered on while aircraft is powered. • Always remove batteries before disassembly. • Always keep moving parts clean. • Always keep parts dry. • Always let parts cool after use and before touching. • Always remove batteries after use. • Always have a first aid kit with you. • Always have an appropriate fire extinguisher with you. • Never operate aircraft with damaged wiring. • Never touch moving parts. • Always keep a safe distance in all directions around your model to avoid collisions or injury. • Always operate your model in open spaces away from full

-size vehicles, traffic and people. • Always carefully follow the directions andwarnings for this and any optional support equipment (chargers, rechargeable battery packs, etc.). • Always keep all chemicals, small parts and anything electrical out of the reach of children. • Always avoid water exposure to all equipment not specifically designed and protected for this purpose.  Never place any portion of the model in your mouth as it could cause serious injury or even death. • Never operate your model with low transmitter batteries. • Always keep aircraft in sight and under control. • Always use fully charged batteries. • Always fly in safe mode **A summary we can publish in the Fe deral Register Federal Register:**  I, Kenneth W.
