Lightbulb My daft idea

This is a long-term dream. It ain't gonna happen for the next year at least and, given my very strong desire to maintain my current marital status may never come to anything... but:

Anybody had any experience with permit-to-fly floatplanes or amphibians (or knowledge of how to do it on a C of A for less than silly money)? Any suggestions about specific models to consider, or anybody know anyone around central Scotland who has one & might be available to discuss experiences over a drink?

Of course, long before I ever come close to being an owner, I'll be talking to Hamish at Prestwick in order to try the whole floaty-winged thing out and, if I like it, to get my seaplane rating on his beautiful bird...
