Unmanned Aircraft Sy stems: DJIInspire 1 UAS Robert Scott Button seeks an exemption to operate DJ I sy stems for compensation or hire within the NAS. DJ I Inspire 1 are vertical takeof f and landing (VT OL) Unmanned Aircraft (UA) with a Ground Control Station (GCS) utilizing electronic tablet or smart phone s ys tems. The DJ I Inspire 1 has a maximum gross weight of 6 pounds 7.5 ounces, a length of 17.3 inches, width of 17.7 inches, height of 11 .8 inches, and a maximum speed of approximately 42 knots. The DJ I Inspire 1UA is equipped with four main rotors; driven by L ithium Poly

m er battery

powered electric motors.

The DJ I Inspire 1 UA that will be operated b y Robert Scott Button will be registered in accordance with 49 U.S.C. 44103, Registration of Aircraft, as well as 14 C.F .R Part 47, Aircraft Registration, and marked in acco rdance with 14 C.F .R. Part 45, I dentification and Registration Markings.

**BASIS FOR PETITION**

Petitioner
, Robert Scott Button , pursuant to the provisions of the Federal Av iation Regulations (14 C.F .R. § 1 1.61) and the F

AA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (FMRA), Section 333, Special Rules for Certain Unmanned Aircraft Sy stems, hereby petitions the Administrator to commerci ally operate the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS in the National Airspace S ys tem (NAS), and for an exemption from the requirements of 14 C.F

. R §§ 61.1 13(a) & (b), 91.7(a), 91.121, 91.151(b), 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a)(2), and 91.417(a) & (b).
In consideration of the speed, weight, size, and limited operating area associated with the unmanned aircraft and its operation, Robert Scott Button operation of the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS meets the conditions of FMRA Section 333 and therefore, will not require an airworthiness certificate in accordance with 14 C.F .R. Part 21, Subpart H.
Accordingly

, Robert Scott Button requests relief from Sections 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a)(2), and 91.417(a) & (b), as these sections set forth requirements for maintenance that onl y appl y to aircraft with an airworthiness certificate.

Robert Scott Button submits that the requested relief is proper since an equivalent level of safet y will be ensured. Robert Scott Button will use experienced personnel or technicians to perform maintenance, alterations, or pr eventive maintenance on the UAS using the methods, techniques, an d practices prescribed in the operating documents (i.e., Monthly Maintenance Log, DJ I In spire 1 Instruction Manual). Furthermore, Robert Scott Button will document and maintain all maintenance records for the DJIInspire 1 UAS

. Relief from certain requir ements of Section 61.1 13(a) and (b), entitled Private pilot privileges and limitations: Pilot in command, is requested b y Robert Scott Button to the extent necessary to allow a Pilot in Command (PI C) holding a private pilot or higher level certificate, as well as an airman medical certificate, and who has demonstrated, b y meeting minimum flight

- hour and currency requirements, that the PI C is able to safel y operate the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS in a manner consistent with this exemption, including evasive and emerg ency maneuvers and maintaining appropriate distances from people, vessels, vehicles and structures.

Robert Scott Button seeks relief from Section 91.7(a), entitled Civil aircraft airworthiness, because theDJIInspire 1 UAS do es not require an airworthiness certificate in accordance with 14 C.F .R. Part 21,

Subpart H. As such, Robert Scott Button submits that he will en sure that the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS is in an airworth y condition, prior to every flight, by determining that the UAS is in compliance with the operating documents (i.e., Monthly Mainten ance Log, DJ I Inspire 1 Instruction Manual), and that the aircraft are in a condition for safe flight.

Robert Scott Button also seeks an exemption from the requirements of Section 91.12 1, entitled Altimeter Settings, as the DJIInspire 1 UAS will not have a t ypical barometric altimeter onboard. However, altitude infor

mation of the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS will be provided to the PI C via Global Positioning Sy stem (GPS) equipment and radio commun ications telemetry data link, which downlinks from the UA

to the GCS for active monitoring of the flight path. This altitude information, combined with Robert Scott Button operation of the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS within visua l line of sight, at or below 400 feet AGL, will ensure a level of safet y equivalent to Section 91.121.
Additionally

, Robert Scott Button seeks an exemption from the requirements of Section 91.151(b), entitled Fuel requirements for flight in VFR conditions. Robert Scott Button submits that s afety will not be affected b y ope ration of the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS during daylight hours in visual meteorological conditions (VMC) under visual flight rules (VFR), with enough battery power to fl y for a total duration of approximately

15.5 minutes to the fir st point of intended landing and, assuming normal cruising speed, to fl y after that for at least 4.5 minutes.

In accordance with 14 C.F .R. § 1 1.81, Robert Scott Button provides the following information in support of its petition for exemption:

**C. The Extent Of Relief Robert Scott Button**  **Seeks And**  **The Reason Robert Scott Button**  **Seeks The Relief.**  **1. Extent Of Relief**  **Robert Sc ott Button**  **Seeks And**  **The Reason Robert Scott Button**  **Seeks Relief Fr**  **om Section 61.1**  **13(a) And (b).**  Relief from Section 61.1 13(a) and (b) entitled Private pilot privileges and limitations: Pilot incommand, is requested to the extent necessary to allow a PI C holding a private pilot or higher level certificate, as well as a current and valid airman medical certificate, and who has met certain flight

- hour and currenc y requirements, to conduct the proposed UAS flight operations for compensation or hire. This relief is requested since the limitations set forth in S ection 61.1 13(a) and (b) state that a private pilot may

, for compensation or hire, act as PI C of an aircraft in connection with an y business or employ

ment if: (1) The flight is only incidental to that business or employ ment; and (2) The aircraft does not carry passengers or prop erty for compensation or hire. As set forth more full y below
, Robert Scott Button submits that an equivalent level of safet y will be maintained because no PI C will be allowed t o operate the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS unless that PI C has met certain flight

- hour and currency requir ements, demonstrating that the PI C is ab le to safel y operate the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS in a manner consistent with the operations specifications

a s described in this exemption, including evasive and emergency maneuvers, as well as maintain ing appropriate distances from people, vessels, vehicles and structures. Further
, Robert Scott Button submits that all f lights of the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS , conducted by the PI C pursuant to the grant of this Petition: (1) will be incidental to Robert Scott Button business; and (2) will not carry

passengers or propert y for compensation or hire. **2. Extent Of Relief**  **Robert Scott Button Seeks**  **And The Reason**  **Robert Scott Butto n**  **Seeks Relief Fr**  **om Section 91.7(a).**  Relief from Section 91.7(a) entitled Civil aircraft airw orthiness, is requested to the extent required to allow Robert Scott Button to determine that the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS are in airworth y condition prior to every

flight by ensuring that the UAS is in compliance with the operating documents (i.e., Robert Scott Button Aerial Operations Manual, Monthly Mainten ance Log, and DJIIn spire 1 Instruction Manual). Robert Scott Button seeks the requested relief bec ause the DJI In spire 1 UAS do not require an airworthiness certificate in acco rdance with 14 C.F .R. Part 21, Subpart H. Therefore, Robert Scott Button will ensure that the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS are in airworth y condition based upon its compliance with the operating documents (i.e., Monthly Ma intenance Lo g, and DJIInspire 1 Instruction Manual) prior to every flight, and further
, determine that the airc raft are in condition for safe flight, as stated in the conditions and limitations below

. **3. Extent Of Relief**  **Robert Scott Button Seeks**  **And The Reason**  **Robert Scott Button Seeks**  **Relief Fr**  **om Section 91.121.**  Relief from Section 91.121, entitled Altimeter settings, may be required to allow flight oper ations of the DJ I Inspir e 1 UAS , which utilize a barometric pressure sensor, GPS equipment, and a radio communications telemetry data link to downlink altitude information from the UA

to the PI C at the ground contr ol station (GCS). Since the F AA requires that an y altitude information concerning UAS operations be reported to air traf fic control (A

TC) in feet above ground level (AGL), Robert Scott Button seeks the requested relief because the DJ I Inspire 1 UA’s altimeter may be set on the ground to zero feet AGL, rather than the local barometric pressure or field altitude, before each fli ght. Considering the limited altitude of the proposed operations, relief from 14 CFR 91.121 is sought to the extent necessary to comply

with the applicable conditions and limitations stated below

. As more full y set forth herein, an equivalent level of safe ty will be maintained since the DJIInspire 1 UA is equipped with a barometric pressure sensor and GPS equipment, which automatically

ensures that a ground level pressure setting will be established prior to each flight, and provides the PIC with altitude information of the UA on the heads

- up display

of the GCS. **4. Extent Of Relief**  **Robert Scott Button Seeks**  **And The Reason**  **Robert Scott Button Seeks**  **Relief Fr om** **Section 91.151(b).**Relief from Section 91.151(b) entitled Fuel requirements fo r flight in VFR conditions, is

requested to the extent required to allow flights of the battery powered DJ I Inspire 1 UAS during daylight hours in visual meteorological conditions (VMC), under visual flight rules (VFR), for a total duration of 15.5 minutes to the first point of intended landing and, assuming normal cruising speed, to fly after that for at least 4.5 minutes. Robert Scott Button seeks the requested relief because without an exe mption from Section 91.151(b), the flight time duration

o f the battery

powered DJIInspire 1 UAS will severel y constrain the practicality of an y aerial video or stil l photo flight operations that Robert Scott Button proposes to conduct pursuant to this Petition. Significantly

, as set forth below, the technical specific at ions of the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS, the DJ I Ins pire 1 operating documents, and Robert Scott Button proposed operating limitations, ensure that Robert Scott Button will safely operate the battery powered DJ I Inspire 1 UAS during daylight hours in visual meteorol ogical conditions (VMC), under visual flight ru les (VFR), with enough battery power to fly for a total duration of 13.5 minutes to the first point of intended landing and, assuming normal cruising speed, to fly after that for at least 4.5 minutes. **5. Extent**  **Of Relief Robert Scott Button**  **Seeks And**  **The Reason Robert Scott Button**  **Seeks Relief Fr**  **om Sections 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a)(2),**  **And 91.417(a) & (b).** Since Sections 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a)(2), and 91.417(a) & (b) onl y apply to aircraft with an airworthiness certificate, **Robert Scott Button** requests relief from these Sections because the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS do not require airworthiness certificates. As set forth

more fully

below, the DJI Inspire 1 UAS meet the conditions of FMRA Section 333 for operation without an airworthine ss certificate. Accordingly

, Robert Scott Button will use trained techn icians to perform maintenance, alterations, or pr eventive maintenance on the UAS usin g the methods, techniques, and practices pre scribed in the UAS operating documents (i.e., Robert Scott Button Aerial Operations Manual, Month ly

Maintenance Log, and DJ I Inspire 1 Instruction Manual). Furthermore, Robert Scott Button will document and maintain all maintenance re cords for the DJ I Insp ire 1 UAS

.

**D. The Reasons**  **Why Granting Robert Scott Button**  **Request Wo**  **uld Be In The Public Inter**  **est: That Is, How It**  **Wo uld Benefit**  **The Public As**  **A Whole.** 
Granting the present Petition will further the public interest b y allowing Robert Sco tt Button to safely , ef ficiently , and economically

perform aerial video and photograph y of construction sites, real estate, and landscape over certain areas of the United States. Additionall y, use of the DJIInspire 1 UAS will decrease congestion of the NAS, reduce pollution, crashes and accidents caused b y pilot error and provide significant benefits to the economy . Notabl y, the benefits of Robert Scott Button proposed ope ration of the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS will be realized without implicating an y privacy iss ues. **1. The Public Will Benefit Fr**  **om Decr**  **eased Congestion Of The NAS.**  The DJ I Inspire 1 UAS is battery powered and serve as a safe, ef ficient, and economical alternative to the manned aircraft traditionally utilized to obtai n aerial imagery . By reducing the

amount of manned aircraft needed to p erform aerial acquisitions, an exemption allowin g the use of a DJ I Inspire 1 UAS would reduce the amount of manned aircraft in the NAS, reduce noise and air pollution, as well as increase the safet y of life and propert y in the air and on the ground. Furthermore, b y reducing the number of manned aircraft operating in the NAS, congestion around airports caused by arriving and departing aircraft will be reduced. The DJ I Inspire 1 UAS do es not require an airport t o takeoff or land. L ikewise, a reduction of manned aircraft conducting aerial video and photography missions would result in fewer aircraft that must behandled b y air traf fic control during the ground, takeof f, departure, arrival, and landing phases of flight operations. **2. The Public Will Benefit Fr**  **om T**  **he Safety And Efficien**  **cy Of The DJI Inspir**  **e 1 UAS**

**.** Conducting aerial acquisit ions with the DJIInspire 1 UAS, instead of manned aircraft, will greatl y benefit the public by drasticall y reducing the levels of air and n oise pollution generated during traditional aerial video and still photography flight operations. By using battery

power and ele ctric motors, the DJIInspire 1 UAS produce no air pollution, and is the most viable environmentally

conscious alternati ve to th e cabin class, six cylinder internal combustion engine aircraft that are t ypically utilized for aerial video and photograph y, while burning approximately

20

- 30 gallons per hour of leaded aviation fuel. The DJ I Inspire 1 UAS , while reducing the carbon footp rint of aerial acquisitions, also elimin ates noise pollution, as the UAS

ar e propelled by

battery powered electric motors, rather than an internal combustion engine. By using the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS to perform aerial acquisitions, the substantial risk to li fe and propert y in the air and on the ground, which is usually associated with traditional manned aircraft flight operations, will be substantially reduced or completely

eliminated. Aside from the lack of flight crew members located onboard the aircraft, the DJIInspire 1 UAS (weighing appro ximately

6 pounds 7.5 ounces , at the maximum gross weight with length 17.3 inches, widths 17.7 inches and with no fuel on board), has less phy sical potential for collateral damage to life and propert y on the ground, and in the air, compared to the manned aircraft that t ypically conduct similar operations (weighing approximately 6,000 pounds with a wingspan of approximately

42 feet, a length of 34 feet, and a fuel capacity of 180 gallons). **3. Performing**  **Aerial Vi**  **deo and Ph oto**  **graphy Operations Wi**  **th The DJI Inspir**  **e 1 UAS Wi**  **ll Benefit**  **The Economy** 

**.** In addition to being safe and e fficient, the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS are also an economical alternative to using manned aircraft to conduct similar aerial operations. As such, oper ation of th e DJ I Inspire 1 UAS will allow United States based companies, like Robert Scott Button , to remain competitive and co ntribute to growth of the U.S. economy . Specifically

, with the rising cost of aviation fuel an d the Environmental Protection Agency (“EP A”) regulatory

actions phasing out leaded aviation fuels, U.S. owned and operated companies must adopt new and alternative technology

i n order to remain competitive. Operating the battery powered DJIInspire 1 UAS is one such technology that not only allows co mpanies greater operational flexibility co mpared to manned aircraft, but provides such flexibility without the high operational cost of a traditional manned aircraft. By operating the DJ I Inspir e 1 UAS , companies such as Robert Scott Button , can remain competitive and profitable, and therefore, provide greater job stability to employ ees and contractors, which will ultimately contribute to growth of the U.S. economy . Improved financial performance of U.S. companies, through commerci al use of the DJ I Inspi re 1 UAS , provides a stable workforce that increases consumer spending; improves local, state, and federal tax revenues; and allows companies to invest in research and development in order to remain competitive both in the United States and abroad. **4. Ther**  **e Ar**  **e No Privacy Issues.** Similar to the manned aerial acquisition flight operation s that have been conducted for decades, Robert Scott Button proposed operation of the DJ I In spire 1 UAS would not implicate any pri vacy issues. Specifically

, the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS will be operated onl y in compliance with operat ing documents (i.e., Robert Scott Button Aerial Operations Manual, Monthly Maintenance Lo g, and DJIInspire 1 Instruction Manual) which requires property owne r involvement as well as local law enforcement notification, and in accordance with the Federal Av iation Regulations, including the minimum altitude requirements of 14 C.F .R. § 91.1 19.**E.

**1. Re**  **asons Why**  **The DJI Inspir e 1 UAS**  **Meet The Conditions Of The F AA**  **Modernization and Reform**  **Act of 2012 (FMRA) Section 333.** In consideration of the siz e, weight, speed, and limited operating area associated with the unmanned aircraft and its operation, Robert Scott Button operation of the DJIInspire 1 UAS meet the conditions of FMRA Sectio n 333, and will not require an airworthiness certificate in

accor dance with 14 C.F .R. Part 21, Subpart H. Secti on 333 provides authority for a UAS to operate without airworthiness certificati on and sets forth requirements for considering whether a UAS will create a hazard to user s of the NAS or the public, or otherwise pose a threat to national security

. Additionally , a safet y observer will assist all pilots during fli ght time. vii. **Flights Of DJI Inspir**  **e 1 UAS Wi**  **ll Be Conducted Pursu ant**  **To Specific**  **Operating Limitations.** In seeking this exemption, Robert Scott Button proposes to commerciall y operate DJ I Inspire 1 UAS for the special purpose of conducting aerial video and photograph y over certain areas of United States, pursuant to th e following specific operating limitations: 1. Operations authorized b y this grant of exemption wi ll be limited to the following aircraft described in the oper ating documents, rotorcraft UAS weighing less than 55 pounds maximu m gross weight: DJ I Inspire 1 Unmanned Aircraft Sy stems. Proposed operations of an y other aircraft will require a new petition or a petition to amend this grant. 2. UAS operations under this exemption will be limited to con ducting operations for the purpose of aerial video and photography

. 3. The UAS may

not be flown at an indicated airspeed exceeding 20 knots. 4. The UA

must be operated at an altitude of no more than 4 00 feet above ground level (AGL), as indicated b y the proced ures specified in the operating documents unless a special request is made and approved b y AT C. All altitudes reported to AT C must be in feet AGL

. 5. The UAS must be operated within visual line of sight (VLOS) of the P IC at all times. This requires the PI C to be able to use human vision unaided by an y devi ce other than corrective lenses, as specified on the PI C’ s FAA

- issued airman medical certificate. 6. The use of first person view (FPV) b y the PI C or safet y ob server (SO) is not permitted. 7. All operations must utilize a safet y observer (SO). The SO may be used to satisfy the VLOS requirement as long as the PIC alway s maintains VLOS c apability

. The SO and PI C must be able to communicate verballyat all times. Electronic messaging or texting is not permitted duri ng flight operations. The PIC must be designated before the flight and cannot transfer his or her designation for the duration of the flight. The PI C must

ensure that the SO can perform the functions prescribed in the operating documents. 8. The SO must no t perform any other duties bey ond ass isting the PI C with seeing and avoiding other air traf fic and other ground based obstacles/obstru ctions and is not permitted to operate the camera or other instruments. 9. The operating documents and the grant of exemptio n must be accessible during UAS operations and made available to the Administrator upon

re quest. If a discrepancy

exists between the conditions and limitations contained in the grant o f exemption and the procedures outlined in the operating documents, the conditions and limitat ions contained in the grant of exemption take precedence and must be followed. Otherwise , the operator must follow the procedures as outlined in its operating documents. The ope rator may update or revise its operating documents. It is the operator ’s responsibility to tr ack such revisions and present updated and revised documents to the Administrator upon request. The operator must also present updated and revised documents if it petitions for extension or amendment to the grant of exe mption. I f the operator determin es that any update or revision would af fect the basis upon which the F

AA granted the exe mption, then the operator must petition for amendment to its grant of exemption. The F AA’s UAS Integration Office (AFS

- 80) may be contacted if questions arise regarding updates or revisions to the operating documents. 10. Prior to each flight the PIC must inspect the UAS to ens ure that it is in a condition f

or safe flight. If the inspection reveals a condition that af fects the saf e operation of the UAS, the aircraft is prohibited from operating until the necessary

maintenance has been performed and the UAS is found to be in a condition for safe flight. The Ground Control Station must be included in the preflight inspection. All mai ntenance an d alterations must be properly documented in the aircraft records. 11. Any UAS that has undergone maintenance or alterations that af fect the UA S operation or flight characteristics, e.g. replacement of a flight

cr itical component, must undergo a fun ctional test flight. The PIC who conducts the functional tes t flight must make an entry in the a ircraft records. 12. The pre

- flight inspection must account for all potential discrepancies, e.g. inoperable components, items, or equipment, not already covered i n the relevant sections of the operating documents. 13. The operator must follow the UAS manufacturer ’s aircraft/component, maintenance, overhaul, replacement, inspectio n, and life limit requirements. 14.

Any UAS operated under this exemption must comply with all manufacturer Safet y Bulletins. 16. The authorized person must make an entry in the air craft record of the

corre ctive action taken against discrepancies discovered between inspections. 17. The PI C must possess at least a private pilot certificate and at least a current third

- class medical certificate. 18. The operator may

not permit any

PI C to operate unles s the PI C meets the operator ’s qualification criteria and demonstrates the ability to safel y operate the UAS in a manner consistent with how the UAS will be operated under the exemption, including evasive and e mergency maneuvers and maintaining appropriate distances f rom p ersons, vessels, vehicles and structures. PIC qualification flight hours must be logged in a manner consistent with 14 C.F .R. § 61.51(b). Flights for the purposes of training the operator ’s PICs are permitted under the terms of the exemption. However, trai ning operations may only be conducted during dedicated training sessions. During training, proficiency , and ex perience

building flights, all persons not essential for flight operations are considered nonparticipants, and the PI C must o perate the UA with ap propriate distance from nonparticipants in accord ance with 14 C.F .R. § 91.1 19. 19. UAS operations may

not be conducted during night, as defined in 14 C.F .R. § 1.1. All operations must be conducted under visual meteorological conditions (VMC). If flight at night is required, a special request will be made at the F AA of fi ce closest to proposed area of operations. Flights under special visual flight rules (SVFR) are not authorized. 20. The UA

may not operate within 5 nautical miles of an airport reference point as denoted on a current F AA

- published aeronautical chart unless a letter of agreement with that airport’ s management is obtained, and the operation is conduc ted in accordance with a NOT AM as required b y the operator ’s COA. The letter of agreement with the air port managem ent must be made available to the Administrator upon request. 21. The UA may

not be operated less than 4 00 feet below or less than 2,000 feet horizontally

from a cloud or when visibility is less than 3 statute miles from the PI C. 22. If the UA

loses co mmunications or loses its GPS s ignal, it must return to a pre

- determined location within the planned operating area and land or be recovered in accordance with the operating documents. 23. The PI C must abort the flight in the event of unpredicte d obstacles or emergencies in accordance with the operating documents. 24. The PI C is prohibited from beginning a flight unless (considering wind and forecast weather conditions) there is enough power to fl y at normal cruising speed to the intended landing point and land th e UA with 25% battery power remaining. 25. The operator must obtain an Air T raf fic Organizati on (A

TO) issued Certificate of Wa iver or Authorization (COA) prior to conducting an y operations under the grant of exemption. This COA will also require theoperator to requ est a Notice to Airman (NOT AM) not more than 72 hours in advance, but not less than 48 hours prior to the operation. All operations shall be conducted in accordance with airspace requirements in the AT O issued CO A including class of airspace, altitude level and potential transponder requirements. 26.

not be operated b y the PIC from any moving device or vehicle. 31. Flight oper ations must be conducted at least 500 feet from all

nonparticipating persons (persons other than the PIC, SO, operator trainees or essential persons), vessels, vehic les, and structures unless:

a. Barriers or structures are present that suf ficiently pro tect

no nparticipating persons f rom the UA

and/or debris in the event of an accident. The operator must ensure that nonparticipating persons remain under such protectio n. If a situation arises where nonparticipating persons leave such protection and are within 500 feet of the UA, flight operations must cease immediately and/or; b. The aircraft is operated near vessels, vehicles or structures where the owner/controller of such vessels, vehicles or structures has granted permission and th e PI C has made a safet y assessme nt of the risk of operating closer to those objects and determined that it does not present an undue hazard, and;

c. Operations nearer to the PI C, SO, operator traine es or essential persons do not present an undue hazard to those persons per § 91.1 19(a). 32. All operations shall be conducted over private or c ontrolled

- access propert y with permission from the land owner/controller or authorized repres entative. Permission from land owner/controller or authorized representative will be obtained for each flight to be conducted. 33. Any incident, accident, or flight operation that transgresses the lateral or vertical boundaries of the operational area as defined by the applicab le COA must be reported to the FAA's UAS Integration Of fice (AFS

. **2. Reasons Why**  **An Exemption Fr om**  **The Requir eme**  **nts Of Section 61.1 13(a)**  **And (b) W**  **ould Not**  **Adversely Affect Safety** 

**.** Robert Scott Button submits that the equivalent level of safet y established by Section 61.1 13(a) and (b) will be maintained because no PIC will be allowed to operate the DJI Inspire 1 UAS unless that PI C has de monstrated, by meeting minimum flight

- hour and currency requirements, that the PI C is able to sa fely operate the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS in a manner consistent with the

ex emption, including evasive and emergency maneuvers and maintaining appropriate distances from people, vessels , vehicles and structures. Considering Ro bert Scott Button proposed area of operations, and the operating limitations set forth

- above; the parallel nature of privat e pilot aeronautical knowledge requirements to those of commercial pilot requirements (See Exemption No. 1 1062); and the airmanship s kills necessary to safe ly operate the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS, Robert Scott Button submits that the additional manned airmanshi p experience of a commercially certificated pilot would not correlate to the airmanship skills necessary for Robert Scott Button specif ic proposed flight operations. The F AA has previously

granted relief from Section 61.1 13(a) and (b) specific to UAS, in circumstances similar, in all material respects, to those presented herein (e.g. Exemption Nos. 11 062, 1 1063, 1 1064, 1 1065, 1 1066, 1 10 67, 1 1080, 1 11 09, 1 111 0, 1 111 2, 1 11 36, 1 11 38, 1 11 50, 111 53, 1 11 56, 1 11 58, 1 11 59, 1 11 60, 1 11 61). Robert Scott Button will not allow any PIC to operate the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS unless that PI C has demonstrated, by meeting minimum flight

hour requi rements for the DJIInspire 1 UAS training and currency requirements, that the PI C is able to safel y operate the DJIInspire 1 UAS in a manner consistent with this exemption, including e vasive and emergency maneuvers and maintaining appropriate distances from people, v ess els, vehicles and structures. Specifically , the PIC must have accumulated and logged, in a manner consistent with 14 C.F .R. § 61.51(b), 25 hours of total time as a UAS rotorcraft pilot (with a minimum of 5 hours of those hours as a UAS pilot operating the same make and model of UAS to be used for operations under the exemption). In addition to the hour requirements, the PIC must accomplish 3 takeof fs and landings in the preceding 90 day s (for currency

purposes). As in Exemption Nos. 1 1062, 1 11 38, and 111 53, prior documented flight experience that was obtained in compliance with applicable regulations will ensure an equivalent level of safet y during Robert Scott Button proposed operations. The Administrator has held that prior documented flight experience that was obtained in compliance with applicable regulations would ensure safe o perations, stating as follows: In Exemption No. 1 1062, the F AA required that prior to conducting operations for the purpose of motion picture filming (or similar oper ations), the PI C must have accumulated and logged, in a manner consistent with 14 CFR 61.51(b), 25 hours of total time as a UAS rotorcraft pilot including at least 10 hours logged as a UAS pilot with a multi

- rotor UAS. Prior to operations under Exemption N o. 1 1062, the PI C must also have accumulated and logged a minimum of 5 hours as a UAS pilot operating the same make and model of UAS to be used for operations under the exemption. For clarification, the F AA considers these minimum hour requirements to be i nclusive rather than additive; i.e. 5 hours make and model time may be included in the 10 hours of multi

- rotor time and the 10 hours may be included in the total 25 hours of UAS rotorcraft time. In addition to the hour requirements, the PI C must accomplish 3 takeof fs and landings in the preceding 90 day s (for currency purposes). The F

AA finds that at a minimum, the flight hour requirements in Exemption No. 1 1062 are appropriate to practice and build proficiency

in the skills necessary

to safel y conduct the petitioner ’s proposed operations. The FAA also finds that prior documented flight experience that was obtained in compliance with applicable regulations would satisfy this requirement. Tr aining, proficiency , and experience

building flights can also be cond ucted under the grant of exemption to accomplish the required flight time. During training, proficiency , and experience

- building flights the PI C is required tooperate the UA with appropriate distances in acc ordance with 14 C.F .R 91.1 19.
Exemption No. 1 1 138 at page 15. Accordingly

, Robert Scott Button will ensure safe operations b y not allowing an y P IC to operate the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS unless that PI C has demonstrated, by meeting minimum flight

hour and currency

requirements, that the PI C is able to safel y operate the DJIInspire 1 UAS in a manner consistent with th e exemption, including evasive and emergency maneuvers and maintaining appropriate distances from people, vessels, vehicles and structures.

**CONCLUSION** Robert Scott Button seeks an exemption pursuant to 14 C.F .R. § 1 1.61 and Section 333 of the F AA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (FMRA), which will p ermit safe operation of the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS commercially , without an airworthiness certificate, for the limited purpose of conduc ting aerial video and photography over certain areas of the United States. By granting this Petition, the F AA A dministrator will be fulfilling the Congressional mandate of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012, while also advancing the interests of the public, by allowing Robert Scott Button to safely , efficiently

, and economicall y operate the DJ I Inspire 1 UA S commerciall y within the NAS. WHEREFORE, in accordance with the Federal Av iation Regulations and the F

AA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012, Section 333, Robert Scott Button respectfully

requests that the Administrator grant this Petition for an exemption from the requirements of 14 C.F .R Sections 61.1 13(a) & (b), 91.7(a), 91.121, 91.151(b), 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) & (a)(2), and 91.417(a) & (b), and permit Robert Scott Button t o operate the DJ I Inspire 1 UAS commerciall y for the purpose of conducting aerial video and photograph y over certain areas of the United States.
