It's a tour that some colleagues have suggested a couple of times, but each time we've agreed that despite the lure of flying on the vintage airliners we cannot ethically contribute to the upkeep of the North Korean state.
Similarly they are hosting their first-ever open-to-civilians air show this September in Wonsan, with 800 'spaces' reserved for international tourists, but although the price offered by some tour operators was attractive for the experience I just couldn't disregard the fact that I'd be funding continued oppression.
