All in the name of progress eh? Reminds me of 1984.

Up here you would get slapped with a $250 fine and maybe a 15 day license suspension if you were rude. Show me a float operator that says he operates within gross weight all the time and I will show you a liar. But I think the attitudes about float planes up here are very different because they are seen as a work horse and with out them we couldn't access half the country.

However, Highwing brings up a good point about insurance.
