Taxi!

出租汽车!

Captain Ben Fawcett has bought an unusual taxi and has begun a new service.

本·弗西特机长买了一辆不同寻常的出租汽车,并开始了一项新的业务。

The ‘taxi’ is a small Swiss aeroplane called a ‘Pilatus Porter’.

这辆“出租汽车”是一架小型瑞士飞机,叫“皮勒特斯·波特”号。

This wonderful plane can carry seven passengers.

这架奇妙的飞机可以载7名乘客。

The most surprising thing about it, however, is that it can land anywhere: on snow, water, or even on a ploughed field.

然而,最令人惊奇的是它能够在任何地方降落:雪地上，水面上,甚至刚耕过的田里。

Captain Fawcett’s first passenger was a doctor who flew from Birmingham to a lonely village in the Welsh mountains.

弗西特机长的第一名乘客是位医生,他从伯明翰飞往威尔士山区一个偏僻的村庄。
