The only place within reasonable driving distance from where I live
that will do a MES commercial charges $500 an hour in a twin sea bee.
I figure it may be cheaper to spend the money on a airline ticket and
a week's stay in a hotel in order to get it done somewhere in a Apache
or something on floats for $200 an hour...

Snort!

there's only one apache on floats, fjukkwit.

Maybe you can do it in a Cessna 150 with a Cox engine screwed on the
outside.

I've got an old .049 "Golden Bee" variant to spare. Would that make
it a SuperCub?
