I am not absolutely sure if he flew to the French site with the Beluga or if this were different situations I mixed up. He told both. Him flying to France and him finding the Beluga experience pleasant. So maybe it was me mixing things up.

A single person can't found a GbR. For that you need at least two people. And yes it is trivially easy to register for it. Also taxes are not too difficult.
