Probably why you also don’t see Medi-vac operators moonlighting as scenic tour operators in their down time.

The state has ample resources available for stuff like this and as seen on north woods law state authorities will leverage national guard assets if need be. I can’t imagine it would be terribly helpful to have a sea plane on hand in most emergency situations and as previously stated with lack of adequate nearby landing facilities, life saving equipment and personnel on board it makes no sense - in fact I doubt you could even get proper liability insurance to do this.
