Exemption	Request	Pursuant	to	Section	333	of	the	FAA	Reform	Act		of 2012

To	Whom	It	May	Concern:

We	are	writing	pursuant	to	the	FAA	Modernization	and	Reform	Act	of	2012	and the	procedures	contained	in	14	C.F.R. Press	Pause	Films,	LLC is	a	proponent	of	the recently	released	docket	no.:	FAA

- 2015

- 0150;	Notice	No.	15

- 01	and	will	abide	by
and	ass ist	in	the	development	of	all	proposed	rules	but	seeks	relief	from	14	C.F.R. until	further	protocols,	standards	and	tests	are	established. Press	Pause	Films,	LLC is	dedicated	to	the	development	of	unmanned	aircraft,	specifically	multi

- rotor aircraft	(aeria l	vehicles	with	a	minimum	of	four	((4))	counter

- rotating	propellers) which	are	inherently	stable	with	the	ability	to	hover	in	place,	and	safety/flight procedures.	Greg	H.	Bollinger,	CEO, Press	Pause	Films,	LLC seeks	relief	from specific	procedures	containe d	in	14	C.F.R.

Press	Pause	Films,	LLC has	received	requests	of	high	definition	aerial photography	from	numerous	entities,	that	pertain,	but	are	not	limited	to;	Real Estate,	Wildlife	Conservation,	and	closed

- set	filming.	Greg	H.	Bollinger,	owner	and operator	of	small	unmanned	multi

- rotor	aircraft,	seeks	relief,	so	the	he	may	operate his	small/lightweight	unmanned	aircraft	systems	commercially	in	airspace	close	to airspace	regulated	by	the	FAA	as	required	by	Section	333.

Press	Pause	Films,	LLC e xemption	request	would	permit	its	operation	of	small, lightweight,	unmanned	(remotely	controlled	within	line	of	sight)	multi

- rotor	aerial systems	in	tightly	controlled	and	limited	airspace.	Predetermined,	specifically marked	areas	of	operation,	private	pro perty	locations	that	correspond	or	surpass current	safety	protocols	will	allow Press	Pause	Films,	LLC to	operate	within current	safety	parameters	and	to	aid	in	the	development	of	new	protocols	being implemented.	As	identified,	amateurs	with	no	flight	exper ience,	safety	plan	or controls	in	place	to	prevent	catastrophe	legally	operate	similar	lightweight,	remote
controlled	multi

- rotors. Press	Pause	Films,	LLC is	developing	plans	to	monitor, evaluate	and	implement	all	of	its	UAS’s	safely.

The	plans	include	but	are	not	limited	to:	pre

- flight	visual	inspection,	pre

- flight mechanical	inspection,	in

- flight	mechanical	test,	maintaining	a	visual	of	the	aircraft and	a	flight	log.

• • Pre

- flight	visual	inspection	includes	examination	of;	propellers ,	motors, electrical	components	and	parts	of	the	frame	for	chips,	cracks,	burns	or	any other	damage.

• • Pre

- flight	mechanical	inspection	is	powering	on	the	aircraft,	transmitter(s)
and	receiver(s)

– checking	video	feed	and	throttling	up	from	3 rd personpo int

- of

- view	without	takeoff	to	ensure	function	of	drive	components (propellers,	motors	and	speed	controllers).

• • In

- flight	mechanical	test	is	done	from	3 rd person	point

- of

- view	(pilot watches	the	aircraft)	at	low	altitude	(eye	level)

– the	pilot	puts	max imum input	of	pitch,	roll,	yaw	and	throttle	sharply	into	transmitter	to	ensure	all axis	of	aircraft	are	fully	capable.

• • Maintain	visual	of	aircraft	through	3 rd person	(pilot	watches	aircraft)
operation	or	by	using	a	spotter	during	1 st person	(pilot	sees point

- of

- view	of aircraft)	operation.

• • A	flight	log	documents	the	pilot	in	control,	spotter,	weather,	area	of operation	and	purpose	of	flight.

To	date, Press	Pause	Films,	LLC has	rejected	all	offers	to	work	with interested	parties	on	locations	w ithin	the	United	States,	to	ensure	it	is	in compliance	with	any	applicable	FARs.	It,	like	other	applicants,	has	done	so despite	Judge	Patrick	G.	Geraghty's	decision	in	the	Raphael	Pirker	matter	and his	reasoning	that	no	FARs	prohibits	the	use	of	small,	unm anned	multi

- rotor aircraft	or	lightweight	UASs	like	those	flown	by	other	peer	companies.

Granting Press	Pause	Films,	LLC request	unites	with	the	Secretary	of Transportation's	responsibilities	to	not	only	integrate	UASs	into	the	national airspace	s ystem,	but	to	"	...	establish	requirements	for	the	safe	operation	of such	aircraft	systems	[UASs]	in	the	national	airspace	system"	under	Section 333(c)	of	the	Reform	Act.	Further, Press	Pause	Films,	LLC will	conduct	its operations	in	compliance	with	the	protocols	describe d	herein	or	as otherwise	established	by	the	FAA.

Granting Press	Pause	Films,	LLC exemption	would	benefit	the	public	in that	Congress	has	already	pronounced	that	it	is	in	the	public's	interest	to integrate	commercially	flown	UASs	into	the	national airspace	system,	hence the	passing	of	the	Reform	Act. Press	Pause	Films,	LLC will	conduct	research into	safe	UAS	operations	for	every	flight	of	its	UASs.	Flight	data,	visual inspections,	recorded	observations	and	flight	analyses	will	be	compiled	to
further enhance	current	safety	protocols.	Allowing Press	Pause	Films,	LLC to	log	more	flight	time	directly	relates	to	its	research	and	its	ability	to	further enhance	current	safety	measures.	The	public	has	critical	interest	in	reducing the	danger	and	emission	ass ociated	with	current	aerial	cinematic	capture methods,	namely,	full	size	helicopters.

Press	Pause	Films,	LLC respectfully	requests	the	grant	of	an	exemption allowing	it	to	operate	small,	lightweight,	remote	controlled	multi

- rotor	UASs
in	Class	G	air space.The	specific	sections	of	Title	14	of	the	Code	of	Federal	Regulations, Press Pause	Films,	LLC requests	exemption	from:

14	CFR	21;	14	C.F.R.	45.23(b);	14	CFR	61.113	(a)	& (b);	14	C.F.R.	91,	et	seq.; 14	CFR	407	(a)(1);	14	CFR	409	(a)(2);	and,	14	CFR	417	(a)	&	(b).

Exemption	Request	Section	333	of	the	FAA	Reform	Act	and	Part	11	of	the Federal	Aviation	Regulations	from	14	C.F.R.	45.23(b);14	CFR	Part	21;14	CFR 61.113	(a)	&	( b);	91.7	(a);91.9	(b)	(2);91.103(b);	91.119;	91.121;	91.203(a)	& (b);	91.405	(a);	91.407(a)	(1);	91.409	(a)	(2);	91.417	(a)	&	(b).

The	Extent	of Press	Pause	Films,	LLC Seeks	and	the	Reason	It	Seeks	Such	Relief:

Press	Pause	Films,	LLC submits	this	application	in	accordance	with	the	Reform	Act, 112	P.L.	95	§§	331

- 334,	seeking	relief	from	any	currently	applicable	FARs	operating
to	prevent Press	Pause	Films,	LLC contemplated	commercial	photography, research	and	other	flight	operations	wit hin	the	national	airspace	system.	The Reform	Act	in	Section	332	provides	for	such	integration	of	civil	unmanned	aircraft systems	into	our	national	airspace	system	as	it	is	in	the	public's	interest	to	do	so. Press	Pause	Films,	LLC lightweight	UASs	meet	the definition	of	"small	unmanned aircraft"	as	defined	in	Section	331	and	therefore	the	integration	of Press	Pause Films,	LLC lightweight	UASs	are	expressly	contemplated	by	the	Reform	Act. Press Pause	Films,	LLC would	like	to	operate	its	lightweight	UASs	prior to	the	time	period by	which	the	Reform	Act	requires	the	FAA	to	promulgate	rules	governing	such	craft.

The	Reform	Act	guides	the	Secretary	in	determining	the	types	of	UASs	that	may operate	safely	in	our	national	airspace	system.	Considerations	inclu de:

The	weight,	size,	speed	and	overall	capabilities	of	the	UAS;	Whether	the	UAS	will be	operated	near	air ports	or	populated	areas;	and,	w hether	the	UAS	will	be operated	by	line	of	sight.

112	P.L.	95	§	333	(a).	Each	of	these	items	militates	in	fav or	of	an	exemption	for Press	Pause	Films,	LLC

.

Press	Pause	Films,	LLC UASs	utilizes	four	counter

- rotating	propellers	for	precise control	and	stability.	They	each	weigh	less	than	25	pounds,	including	photography or	other	equipment.	Each	of Press	Paus e	Films,	LLC small	unmanned	aircraft	are designed	to	primarily	hover	in	place	and	operate	at	less	than	a	40	knot	maximum speed.	They	are	capable	of	vertical	and	horizontal	operations	but	operate	only within	the	line	of	sight	of	the	remote	control	pilot.	In addition	to	the	remote	control pilot, Press	Pause	Films,	LLC uses	a	spotter	and	a	technician,	such	that,	at minimum,	two Press	Pause	Films,	LLC personnel	govern	the	safe	flight	of	an Press Pause	Films,	LLC aircraft	at	all	times.Utilizing	battery	po wer	and	not	combustible	fuels,	flights	generally	last	between two	and	twenty	minutes. Press	Pause	Films,	LLC does	not	operate	its	UASs	with less	than	twenty	five	percent	battery	capacity.	Safety	systems	in	place	include	a	GPS
mode	that	allows Press	Pause	F ilms,	LLC UASs	to	hover	in	place	if	communication with	the	radio	control	pilot	is	lost	and	then	slowly	descend	the	aircraft	until	landing. Further, Press	Pause	Films,	LLC aircraft	are	programmed	to	slowly	descend	when twenty	five	percent	battery	capacity	h as	been	reached.

Press	Pause	Films,	LLC does	not	operate	its	UASs	near	airports	and	generally does	not	operate	them	near	populated	areas. Press	Pause	Films,	LLC only	operates

its	UASs in	predetermined	areas	and	only	in	compliance	with	FAA	regulations.

Press	Pause	Films,	LLC operation	of	its	fleet	of	small,	unmanned	aircraft	will	not "create	a	hazard	to	users	of	the	national	airspace	system	or	the	public."	112	P.L.	95	§ 333	(b).	G iven	the	small	size	and	weight	of Press	Pause	Films,	LLC UASs,	combined with	their	superior	maneuverability	and	operation	in	well

- controlled	areas, Press Pause	Films,	LLC aircraft	lay	within	Congress's	contemplated	safety	zone	when	it promulgated	the	Refor m	Act	and	the	corresponding	directive	to	integrate	UASs	into the	national	airspace	system Press	Pause	Films,	LLC aircraft	do	not	pose	any	threat to	the	general	public	or	national	security.

The	FAA	has	the	authority	to	issue	the	exemption	to Press	Paus e	Films,	LLC pursuant	to	the	Federal	Aviation	Act,	85	P.L.	726	(1958),	as	amended	(the	"Act").

Commercial	and	Public	Benefits

Granting Press	Pause	Films,	LLC exemption	request	furthers	the	public	interest. First,	Congress	has	already	pronounced	th at	it	is	in	the	public's	interest	to	integrate commercially	flown	UASs	into	the	national	airspace	system,	hence	the	passing	of	the Reform	Act.	Second, Press	Pause	Films,	LLC conducts	research	into	safe	UAS operations	every	time	it	flies	one	of	its	UASs.	Fl ight	data,	visual	inspections, recorded	observations	and	flight	analyses	are	compiled	to	further	enhance	current safety	protocols.	Allowing Press	Pause	Films,	LLC to	log	more	flight	time	directly relates	to	its	research	and	its	ability	to	further	enhance	c urrent	safety	measures. Third,	the	public	has	an	interest	in	reducing	the	danger	and	emission	associated with	current	aerial	cinematic	capture	methods,	namely,	full	size	helicopters. Press Pause	Films,	LLC UASs	are	battery	powered	and	create	no	emissions. If	an Press Pause	Films,	LLC UAS	crashes	there	is	no	fuel	to	ignite	and	explode.	The	impact	of Press	Pause	Films,	LLC lightweight	UASs	is	far	less	than	a	full	size	helicopter, despite	the	statistically	noteworthy	safety	record	of	full	size	helicopters	used in aerial	picture	capture.	The	public's	interest	is	furthered	by	minimizing	ecological and	crash	impacts	by	permitting	aerial	photography	capture	through Press	Pause Films,	LLC lightweight	UASs.Progression	of	the	arts	and	sciences	has	been	fundame ntal	to	our	society	since	its inclusion	in	the	United	States	Constitution.	Indeed,	Congress	mandated	the integration	of	UASs	into	our	national	airspace	system,	in	part,	to	achieve progression	in	this	noteworthy,	and	inevitable,	field.	Permitting Press	Paus e	Films,

LLC to	immediately	fly	within	the	United	States	furthers	these	objectives.	Whether	it is	the	combination	of	scientific	discoveries	applicable	to	societal	advancement (including	those	drawing	upon	architecture,	physics,	engineering	and	cultural

inc lusiveness)	to	advancements	in	publicly	usable	technologies	or	advancements	in equipment	available	to	law	enforcement	personnel/first	responders	that	does	not cost	millions	of	dollars,	granting Press	Pause	Films,	LLC exemption	request substantially	further s	the	public's	interest	in	ways	known	and	currently	unknown.

Reasons	Why Press	Pause	Films,	LLC Exemption	Will	Not	Adversely	Affect	Safety Or	How	The	Exemption	Will	Provide	a	Level	of	Safety	At	Least	Equal	To	Existing
Rule:

Press	Pause	Films,	LLC exemption	will	not	adversely	affect	safety.	Quite	the contrary,	for	the	reasons	stated,	supra,	permitting Press	Pause	Films,	LLC to	log more	flight	time	in	FAA	airspace	will	allow Press	Pause	Films,	LLC to	innovate	and implement	new	and	as	of	yet	undiscov ered	safety	protocols.	In	addition, Press Pause	Films,	LLC submits	the	following	representations	of	its	flight	standards:

• Press	Pause	Films,	LLC UASs	weigh	less	than	25	pounds	complete	with	small, high

- definition	cameras	like	the	GoPro	or	Canon	T3i;

• Press	Pause	Films,	LLC only	operates	its	UASs	below	400	feet;

• Press	Pause	Films,	LLC UASs	only	operate	for	2

- 25	minutes	per	flight;

• Press	Pause	Films,	LLC lands	its	UASs	before	they	reach	25%	battery	power;

• Press	Pause	Films,	LLC remote	control	pilo ts	operate Press	Pause	Films,	LLC UASs	by	line	of	sight;

• Press	Pause	Films,	LLC remote	control	pilots	have	video	backup	and	nearest airfield(s)	contact	information	should	they	somehow	lose	sight	of	the	UAS;

• Press	Pause	Films,	LLC staffs	each	flight	wit h	a	remote	control	pilot,	technician and	spotter	with	communication	systems	enabling	real	time	communication between	them;

• Press	Pause	Films,	LLC UASs	have	GPS	flight	modes	whereby	they	hover	and	then slowly	land	if	communication	with	the	remote	control pilot	is	lost	or	battery	power is	below	25%;

• Press	Pause	Films,	LLC actively	analyses	electronic	flight	data	and	other	sources of	information	to	constantly	update	and	enhance	safety	protocols;

• Press	Pause	Films,	LLC only	operates	in	secured	areas	that are	controlled,	are away	from	airports	and	highly	populated	areas;

• Press	Pause	Films,	LLC only	operates	during	daylight	hours;

• Press	Pause	Films,	LLC conducts	extensive	pre

- flight	checks,	boundaries	and awareness	prior	to	flight,	during	which	safety	ca rries	primary	importance;

• Press	Pause	Films,	LLC always	obtains	all	necessary	permissions	prior	tooperation;	and, Press	Pause	Films,	LLC has	procedures	in	place	to	abort	flights	in the	event	of	safety	breaches	or	potential	danger.

Press	Pause	Films, LLC provides	a	level	of	safety	at	least	equal	to	existing	rules, and	in	nearly	every	instance,	greater	than	existing	rules.	It	is	important	to	note	that absent	the	integration	of	commercial	UASs	into	our	national	airspace	system, helicopters	are	the	primar y	means	of	aerial	photography.	While	the	safety	record	of such	helicopters	is	great,	it	is	far	safer	to	operate	a	battery	powered	lightweight UAS.	First,	the	potential	loss	of	life	is	diminished	because	UASs	carry	no	people	on
board	and Press	Pause	Films, LLC only	operates	them	in	specific	areas	away	from mass	populations.	Second,	there	is	no	fuel	on	board	a	UAS	and	thus	the	potential	for fire	or	explosions	is	greatly	diminished.	Third,	the	small	size	and	extreme maneuverability	of Press	Pause	Films,	LLC UA Ss	allow	remote	control	pilots	to avoid	hazards.	Also, Press	Pause	Films,	LLC UASs	noise	emissions,	compared	to today’s	helicopters,	are	drastically	lower.	Lastly,	given	their	small	size	and	weight, even	when	close	enough	to	capture	images, Press	Pause	Fil ms,	LLC UASs	need	not be	so	close	to	the	objects	they	are	focused	on.	Accordingly, Press	Pause	Films,	LLC UASs	will	operate	at	and	above	current	safety	levels.

Summary	The	FAA	May	Publish	in	the	Federal	Register

Part	21	prescribes	the	procedural	r equirements	for	issuing	and	changing	design approvals,	productions	approvals,	airworthiness	certificates,	and	airworthiness approvals.

14	C.F.R.	21,	Subpart	H,	entitled	Airworthiness	Certificates,	sets	forth requirements	for	procurement	of	necessary airworthiness	certificates	in	relation	to FAR	§	91.203(2)(b,	c,	&	d)	&	91.317(f)(2),	(g),	(j)(1	&	2).	The	size,	weight,	speeds, flight	maneuvers	and	controlled	operational	area	of Press	Pause	Films,	LLC UASs permits	exemption	from	Part	21	because Press	Pa use	Films,	LLC UASs	meet	an equivalent	level	of	safety	pursuant	to	Section	333	of	the	Reform	Act.	The	FAA	is authorized	to	exempt	aircraft	from	the	airworthiness	certificate	requirement	under both	the	Act	(49	U.S.C.	§	44701	(f))	and	Section	333	of	the	Refo rm	Act.	Both	pieces	of legislation	permit	the	FAA	to	exempt	UASs	from	the	airworthiness	certificate requirement	in	consideration	of	the	weight,	size,	speed,	maneuverability	and proximity	to	areas	such	as	airports	and	dense	populations. Press	Pause	Films,	L LC
multi

- rotor	UASs	do	not	carry	passengers	nor	crewmembers,	therefor e ,	are	not designed	with	a	cabin	or	a	cockpit.	Furthermore, Press	Pause	Films,	LLC UASs	will not	be	operating	in	or	out	of	airports	and	in	view	of	the	fact	that Press	Pause	Films,

LLC mult i

- rotor	UASs	are	electrically	powered	by	small	lithium

- polymer	(LiPo)
batteries	and	emit	no	known	emissions

-- fuel	regulations	for	aircraft	do	not	apply.
Therefore Press	Pause	Films,	LLC UASs	meet	or	exceed	each	of	these	elements	and elements	proposed	in Docket	No.:	FAA

- 2015

- 0150;	Notice	No.	15

- 01.	Part	107.

14	C.F.R.	91.7	(a)	prohibits	the	operation	of	an	aircraft	without	an	airworthiness certificate.	No	such	certificate	will	be	applicable	in	the	form	contemplated	by	theFARs.	With	proposed	Docket	No.: FAA

- 2015

- 0150;	Notice	No.	15

- 1	as	no	such certificate	will	be	applicable,	this	Regulation	is	inapplicable.

14	C.F.R.	§	91.9	(b)	(2)	requires	an	aircraft	flight	manual	in	the	aircraft.	As	there	are no	pilots	or	passengers,	and	given	the	size	of	the	UASs, this	Regulation	is inapplicable.	An	equivalent	level	of	safety	will	be	achieved	by	maintaining	a	manual

at Press	Pause	Films,	LLC flight	operations	center.	The	FAA	has	previously	issued exemptions	to	this	regulation	in	Exemption	Nos.	8607,	8737,	8738,	9299 ,	9299A, 9565,	9565B,	10167,	10167A,	10602,	10700	and	32827.

14	C.F.R.	§	91.121	regarding	altimeter	settings	is	inapplicable	insofar	as Press Pause	Films,	LLC UASs	utilize	electronic	global	positioning	systems	and	internal gyroscopes	and	altimeters	to	pr ovide	spatial	coordination.

14	C.F.R.	§	91.203	(a)	and	(b)	provides	for	the	carrying	of	civil	aircraft	certifications and	registrations.	They	are	inapplicable	for	the	same	reasons	described	above

– with	recently	proposed	Docket	No.;	FAA

- 2015

- 0150;	Notice	No.	15

- 1.	The equivalent	leve l	of	safety	will	be	achieved	by	maintaining	such	quality	assurance and	registrations	reports	at	the Press	Pause	Films,	LLC flight	operations	center.

14	C.F.R.	§	45.23:	Marking	of	The	Aircraft.

Applicable	Codes	of	Federal	Regulation	require	ai rcraft	to	be	marked	according	to certain	specifications. Press	Pause	Films,	LLC UASs	are	unmanned

-- they, therefore,	do	not	have	a	cabin,	cockpit	or	pilot	station	on	which	to	mark	certain words	or	phrases.	Further,	two

- inch	lettering	is	difficult	to	place on	such	a	small aircraft.	Regardless, Press	Pause	Films,	LLC will	mark	its	UASs	in	the	largest possible	lettering	by	placing	identification	marks	on	its	frame	as	required	by	14 C.F.R.	§	45.29	(f)	so	that	the	pilot,	technician,	spotter	and	others	working	w ith	the UAV	will	be	identifiable	and	will	see	the	markings.	The	FAA	has	previously	issued exemptions	to	this	regulation	through	Exemptions	Nos.	8738, 10167,	10167A	and	10700.

14	C.F.R.	§	61.113:	Private	Pilot	Privileges	and	Limitations:	PIC.

Pursuant	to	14	C.F.R.	§§	61.113	(a)	&	(b),	private	pilots	are	limited	to	non

commercial	operations. Press	Pause	Films,	LLC can	achieve	an	equivalent	or superior	level	of	safety	as	achieved	by	current	Regulations	because Press	Pause Films,	LLC UASs	do	not carry	any	pilots	or	passengers

– the	operators	will	maintain visual	line	of	site	of	UA	and	given	the	size,	weight,	speed,	maneuverability	and operating	parameters	of Press	Pause	Films,	LLC UAS’s	risk	to	people	and	property is	reduced.	Further,	while	helpfu l,	a	pilot	license	will	not	ensure	remote	control piloting	skills,	though Press	Pause	Films,	LLC pilot	vetting	and	training	programs will.	Further,	private	pilot	licensees	require	60

- 70	hours	of	flight	time

– with hundreds	of	hours	of	computer	simulation	a nd	remote	control	aircraft	[50+	hours	ofmulti

- rotor	UAS]	experience	the	person	in	control	of	the	UA	will	operate Press Pause	Films,	LLC UASs	with	the	same	or	more	skill.	Further,	the	risks	attendant	to the	operation	of Press	Pause	Films,	LLC UASs	is	far less	than	the	risk	levels inherent	in	the	commercial	activities	outlined	in	14	C.F.R.	§	61,	et	seq

– Press	Pause Films,	LLC maintains	visual	of	UA	via	a	spotter,	altitude	of	UA	will	never	exceed 400ft	AGL.	Thus,	allowing Press	Pause	Films,	LLC to	operate	i ts	multi

- rotor	UASs with	it’s	current	experience	and	standards	meets	the	minimum	safety	requirements of	14	C.F.R.	§61.113	(a)	&	(b).

14	C.F.R.	91.119:	Minimum	Safe	Altitudes.

14	C.F.R.	§	91.119	prescribes	safe	altitudes	for	the	operation	of	civil	aircraft.	It allows	helicopters	to	be	operated	at	lower	altitudes	in	certain	conditions.	As proposed	in	Docket	No.:	FAA

- 2015

- 0150;	Notice	No.	15

- 01, Press	Pause	Films,	LLC

UASs	never	o perates	at	an	altitude	greater	than	400	AGL. Press	Pause	Films,	LLC will,	however,	operate	its	UASs	at	a	much	lower	altitude	than	proposed	in	Docket

No.:	FAA

- 2015

- 0150;	Notice	No.	15

With	current	knowledge	and	experience	and	until	operator	certifications	become
clearer Press	Pause	Film s,	LLC respectfully	requests	that	the	FAA	grant	its exemption	request	without	delay.	The	FAA	has	the	authority	to	issue	the	exemption sought	by Press	Pause	Films,	LLC pursuant	to	the	Federal	Aviation	Act,	85	P.L.	726 (1958),	as	amended	(the	"Act").
