I named it after a Chinese definition i found inside of a fortune cookie "Flying Perch" I now wish i had given the name more thought. I bought it off a local Thai smuggler who build the thing in the back of a garage in Bangkok for the purpose of trafficking "pow-pow-powder" from Laos into China. I re purposed the thing for tourism flights along the Yangtzee River for Chinese tourists. The engines are are the same as that of the famous DC-3 but that's where the similarities end. The fuselage i want to say is Antonov, the seats Toyota, the light panel is Nissan, i think and the Hydraulics are Lada or worse. The damn thing started killing immedietly on its first flight; she began pumping exhaust into the chink-bulit HVAC, poisoning twenty-two tourists aboard as well as the co-pilot. The plane being so top heavy needed almost 2 miles to take off by then every one was dead. I buried the co-pilot with his Aussie passport near the air strip and I managed to pay off the authorities (which is just about the only thing i give the Chinese credit for is their corruptibility) to rule it as an "accident" and moved on. Since then, the plane has on three separate occasions flat-lined fifteen minutes after takeoff. Then somehow inexplicably recovering and landing, not before of course gliding like a bag of hammers and re-evaluating everyone on boards' view on god. The trim characteristics are shot and she flies as smoothly as a Frying Pan . Shes garnered a reputation for being cursed by the locals and the even fuel guy put old coins on her engine to ward off the evil spirits. Right now we are offering 100,000 Yen for it, but please feel free to talk us down from it. Right now we're almost willing to give it away.
