Petition for Exemption

    Docket No.: FAA-2018-0612.
    Petitioner: Anthony Ison, Esq. on behalf of Airman Certificate No. 
3679272.
    Section(s) of 14 CFR Affected: 61.159(a), 61.160(f).
    Description of Relief Sought: Petitioner seeks exemption from 
Sec. Sec.  61.159(a) and 61.160(f) for the purpose of obtaining an 
Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) Certificate with an Airplane Category 
Rating. More specifically, petitioner seeks to utilize time logged as 
Pilot-in-Command (PIC) of complex, remotely piloted aircraft (RPA) to 
satisfy the aeronautical experience prerequisites and requirements, 
which are set out in the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) for 
obtaining an ATP certificate. As such, this petition will show that 
petitioner's aeronautical experience and knowledge are equivalent to 
those requirements set out in the FARs from which the exemption is 
sought. Furthermore, this petition will show that the RPA, which 
petitioner has operated as PIC, requires the same aeronautical 
decision-making, concerns for spatial-orientation, and aeronautical 
operational understanding, as is required in manned aircraft.
