I am sure the company have done their market research here---however---"remote bays in North Wales" ---where, exactly, did they have in mind ? I can only think of the Llewyn Peninsula in this respect which begs the question-----and I admit I know nothing about floatplane ops. here---what about the sea state conditions for landing and take-off given the Irish Sea is not a placid piece of water at the best of times.

I am sure it's not a romantic dream to operate these flights---but the market must be limited surely as would the operating periods---summer months only ? and even then the weather can be fickle enough. I am not being cynical here--just curious as to how they plan to operate and to where.
