[00:14.61]Does Captain Fawcett think any trip is too dangerous?
[00:22.86]Captain Ben Fawcett has bought an unusual taxi and has begun a new service.
[00:31.72]The 'taxi' is a small Swiss aeroplane called a 'Pilatus Porter'.
[00:39.18]This wonderful plane can carry seven passengers.
[00:44.37]The most surprising thing about it, however, is that it can land anywhere: on snow, water, or even on a ploughed field.
[00:56.99]Captain Fawcett's first passenger was a doctor who flew from Birmingham to a lonely village in the Welsh mountains.
[01:07.68]Since then, Captain Fawcett has flown passengers to many unusual places.
[01:14.19]Once he landed on the roof of a block of flats and on another occasion, he landed in a deserted car park.
[01:24.45]Captain Fawcett has just refused a strange request from a businessman.
[01:31.29]The man wanted to fly to Rockall, a lonely island in the Atlantic Ocean,
[01:38.23]but Captain Fawcett did not take him because the trip was too dangerous.
