The Epstein estate probably has a couple of islands for sale.....
Then there's Sealand, but you'll have trouble landing a DC-6 there.

Well if we’re gonna tear up some airspace sans the FAA then I’ll sign up for a Douglas A-26. Speed, maneuverability, good looks and ya get to blow up some stuff if you’re in the mood.

A-26 yes nice, but not enough engines, though I think Neptunes look a bit nicer. For a twin a P-38 would be the choice though. I'd like the thrill of flying the heavy 4 engine job solo. How many have done that? A hand full maybe?
interestingly, there is a way.... used when testing glider tow capabilities. As long as there is a rope or cable attached to a vehicle or track on the ground, the aircraft and pilot do not require licensing. Once free of the rope, rules change. Sounds stupid, but is reality. Found this out when helping a friend test a glider in the 60’s.
