Hey thanks for getting in touch. You most definitely should get your pilots license! Your friends idea has merit for sure, that would be a cool idea. And there are a number of folks who he should contact to assist in the training. I personally am into flying taildragger bush planes and float planes in the remote wilderness backcountry.

This is an altogether different type of flying than most people do but it is what I truly enjoy. If you wanted to do this style then there are specific instructors that you should consider training with. Bit me up on steemit chat for more information.

No I really don't take anyone with me on my journeys. I have removed the rear seat because I needed the extra cargo area for my camping gear and camera equipment.
