I've never done a float hunt, but I've been on many drop hunts.
That book that M.T. Pockets is referring to is a good one. You can also look at Floating Hunting by Larry Bartlett.
Choose your air taxi carefully and be prepared to deal with a 1200 lb animal on the ground.
IMO, nonresidents who do not have an "in" in Alaska have a hard time dealing with logistics. Once you get your meat from the field, how do you get it home? You can donate it in most circumstances if you want, but what if you can't?
There are piles of variables. Send me a few more specific questions and I will do my best to answer them.
