Pretty much as it says really guys. I'm operating into YVR and then got quite a few days off in beautiful BC. I want to do the usual touristy stuff in town and up in the mountains but because I've never done it before, I really want to fly in a floatplane. Now I know I can go to Coal Harbour (?) downtown, across from The Grill or even over to the Flying Beaver and grab a flight as a pax but my question to you guys, is, is it possible to go somewhere and get a bit of stick time to see what this seaplane stuff is all about ( a very limited insight I grant you)!! I've seen Cessna's on floats along with radial and turbine Beavers around the Flying Beaver before but as these are all engaged in commercial ops I reckon I need to travel further afield to realise my cunning plan. Where will I have to travel to in order to do this and what sort of ballpark hourly rate can I expect (type dependent I appreciate). Lastly, how long will it take for the silly grin to leave my face afterwards?
