Gnarly Gnu Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 "You don't often get tour agents who will arrange a trip to a country just to fly in its planes, [/url]but in North Korea this is possible. London-based Juche Travel Services offers an aviation-themed tour. Air Koryo recently acquired two Russian-built Tupolev Tu-204s for international routes, with an economy ticket costing about 900 yuan ($137) for the two-hour journey from Beijing. Once in Pyongyang, you can hop into Soviet-era aircraft such as a Mil Mi-17 transport helicopter for a buzz over the capital, or a view of the mountains. "It’s a very different experience, traveling back 20, 30 years,'' says Sam Chui, an aviation enthusiast who's flown Air Koryo about 20 times." Enthusiastically waving at their favourite customer, Bex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onetrack Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I'll wager the hosties are saying, "No camera!! No picture, please!!" And whatever you do - don't mention the Korean War - or South Korea! What's with the big, long green wedge, covering the globe in the background? Is that the trajectory/range of the latest NK missile?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
