And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
I had met a salesman for Cessna. They gave him a Caravan on floats to tool around the country.
I asked and with a smile he said you bet. The floats were stuffed with his personal camping gear and fly rods. He would put down at whatever lake or river if he knew he could takeoff from. (Don't land somewhere until you know you can climb out of there.
He'd sell the plane then give familiarization checks to meet insurance requirements.
He also was a flight instructor and FAA examiner. I know he gave at least one pilot an ATP check ride using the Caravan.

Reminds me of the ww2 and Vietnam plane and heli surplus they turned into campers and tried to sell.
