Commercial aviation at its finest! Accessible, intimate, no control towers and YES to De Havilland Beavers (and Otters - 'cause this is one of them).

If you want to go for a ride on seaplane, go to Ketchikan Alaska.

That Kenmore colour scheme is very understated but instantly recognisable. Where was this filmed?

[@QuietSlices]

Agreed, I like the color scheme! This is at Lake Union in Seattle, Washington.

@@QuietSlicesMany thanks. I like the idea of city centre aviation unless you have an inflight emergency. You don't have many choices of where to go then.

[@julesjames593]

@@mothmagic1 More choices than a wheeled aircraft. Seaplanes follow the Lake Washington Ship Canal. They fly over an emergency runway at all times.
