This notice is published pursuant to

Acting Executive Director, Office of 

Rulemaking. 

Petition for Exemption 

Docket No.: FAA–2021–0489. 

Petitioner: San Antonio Air Charter. 

Sections of 14 CFR Affected: 

61.113(a); 91.7(a); 91.319(a); 135.25(a); 

135.93; 135.143(a) and (b); and 135.115. 

Description of Relief Sought: San 

Antonio Air Charter (SAAC) petitions 

for an exemption from Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations §§ 61.113(a); 

91.7(a); 91.319(a); 135.25(a); 135.93; 

135.143(a) and (b); and 135.115 that 

would allow SAAC, a part 135 operator, 

to enable unmanned aircraft system 

(UAS) commercial flights of a 

developmental optionally piloted 

aircraft (OPA). That UAS, the Textron 

Grand Caravan 208B, has been modified 

to enable OPA operations—when the 

aircraft is flown as if it is unmanned 

from a ground control station, but is 

actually under the supervision of an onboard pilot in command, who is able to 

disconnect the auto-flight system and 

assume traditional control of the aircraft 

should an off-nominal situation arise.
