Yeesh.

A Cessna or Piper is one thing, but a Citab? I suppose you could bungee cord the stick in place

And keep the window open in order to stay alert.......

Maybe slap on some floats - just in case.....

Be careful out there.

$2700 gets you a 40' container delivered to the port of your choice. Say a $1000 for assembly, faffing and niff naff and all the other bills would be the same as if you flew it in. Now I reckon it would that and some to fly it - ask Ray Clegg at Netherthorpe, he took his KIS to Oshkosh & back. He knows all the costs and pitfalls.
