 Exemption No. 7827H 

 Regulatory Docket No. FAA-2002-12484 

Mr. Michael Rosolina 

Flight Operations Manager, Aerial Application 

Dynamic Aviation Group, Inc. 

P.O. Box 7 

Bridgewater, VA 22812 

Dear Mr. Rosolina: 

This letter is to inform you that we have granted your petition to extend and amend Exemption 

No. 7827, as amended. It explains the basis for our decision, describes its effect, and lists the 

conditions and limitations. 

The Basis for Our Decision 

By letter dated June 7, 2010, you petitioned the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on 

behalf of Dynamic Aviation Group, Inc. (Dynamic Aviation), for an extension and 

amendment to Exemption No. 7827, as amended. That exemption from § 137.53(c)(2) of 

Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations permits Dynamic Aviation to conduct aerial 

applications of insecticide materials without the aircraft being equipped with a device that is 

capable of jettisoning at least one-half of the aircraft’s maximum authorized load of 

agricultural materials within 45 seconds when operating over a congested area. The 

amendment you request would add the following aircraft to the exemption. 

Registration Number Serial Number 

N7199L LU-009 

N75N LM-057 

N72J LM-072 

N79W LM-077

In your petition, you indicate that there has been no change in the conditions and reasons 

relative to public interest and safety that were the basis for granting the original exemption. 

The FAA has determined that good cause exists for not publishing a summary of the petition 

in the Federal Register because the requested extension and amendment to the exemption 

would not set a precedent, and any delay in acting on this petition would be detrimental to 

Dynamic Aviation. 

Our Decision 

The FAA has determined that the justification for the issuance of Exemption No. 7827, as 

amended, remains valid with respect to this exemption and is in the public interest. Therefore, 

under the authority provided by 49 U.S.C. 40113 and 44701, which the FAA Administrator 

has delegated to me, I grant your petition, subject to the following conditions and limitations. 

Conditions and Limitations 

1. This exemption is limited to Beechcraft King Air 65A90-1, 65A90-4, and BE-90 

aircraft equipped for agricultural operations in the restricted category in accordance 

with a field approved alteration, documented on FAA Form 337. 

2. The authority of this exemption is to be used only in conjunction with conducting 

aerial agricultural operations. 

3. During dispensing operations, aircraft operated in conjunction with this exemption are 

limited to a maximum gross weight that will ensure a single-engine climb performance 

capability of at least 200 feet per minute positive rate at the prevailing density altitude. 

Under no condition will the aircraft’s gross weight exceed the maximum takeoff gross 

weight specified in the FAA-approved airplane flight manual. 

4. Prior to each flight, a document must be prepared showing the weight and balance 

calculations and the altitude performance for the forecast operating density altitude. 

The document must be retained for at least 30 days and must be presented upon 

request to the FAA inspector assigned to oversee the petitioner’s part 137 operation. 

5. A copy of this exemption must be provided to each pilot in command (PIC) who 

operates under this exemption. 

6. A copy of this exemption must be carried on the aircraft while conducting operations 

under the terms of this exemption. 

7. Prior to operating under this exemption, each PIC must have successfully completed 

flight instruction from an appropriately rated flight instructor on single-engine 

operations, performance, and handling characteristics of the make and model aircraft. 

A record of this instruction must be made available by the PIC upon the request of the 

Administrator.

8. Dynamic Aviation must maintain a current list of aircraft used under the exemption 

and provide a copy of this exemption and a copy of the list of aircraft to the 

Washington Flight Standards District Office (AEA-FSDO-27) to be placed in its 

part 137 file. This list will identify the registration and serial numbers of the aircraft 

being used. 

The Effect of Our Decision 

The termination date of Exemption No. 7827, as amended, is extended to July 31, 2012. This 

letter must be attached to, and is a part of, Exemption No. 7827. 

Sincerely, 

/s/ 

Raymond Towles 

Acting Director, Flight Standards
