" Life on the river is changing. The sail boats that used to ply this mighty river are now rarely to be seen. The plaintive Bhatiali song is being replaced by the drone of the 'shallow' engine. Over fishing has reduced the harvest for the fisherman. But still, the river remains central to the Bangladeshi way of life, and Abbasuddin's songs still drift across the waves of the majestic Brahmaputra." said Buligur to Dr. Olivia Berluscotti. Olivia came to Bangladesh because her father, Dr. Giulio Pratto famous underwater explorer brought her to advise him on which part of the big river or smaller ones he could find the city of Ghulibum, being her famous for finding lost cities and long forgotten ruins.
Flying around these plains is a bore to some but to those who love the science of nature or the History of long lost artifacts it is a treasure.
Finding the lost city will not be easy, since many miles will have to be flown with eyes open, if she had cat eyes it would be better for her due to many fog banks and some strange phenomena that the natives speak about. Just six months ago two planes were lost in this region, no one has heard anything about these nor the crews. Buligur Bubtuh is a famous "woolikun" or witch doctor famous all over the wet lands for predicting where things are, he even predicted where his dog, Rigtukon, had placed his collection of dried up bones just last year.
A flight has been arranged at Maluk Lumka´s Airfield where Dr. Pratto has hired a refurbished and repainted Grumman Goose. The flight will take his party to many small fields and villages by the river where the "Magmar Chiefs" will be questioned by Olivia about the legend of the strange city, lost many centuries ago. Fog, Rain, sweat, high blood pressure and even strange smells will be part of this flight. And, surely, a curse wll be placed by a competitor witch doctor of Buligur who will be considered a "fluktar" or traitor...The doctor has asked around for a co-pilot and found Captain Zuana Kanklu, 31 year old captain on Biman Airlines who is spending her vacation in her village. She will co-pilot the plane and obviously You will pilot it!!!!!......
So, here is another true story of the aviation history of Bangladesh!!!! it is 1939 and there are rumors that some foreign troops have been nosing around. So there is are several situations here: A possible curse might fall upon the expedition, someone could shoot down the plane, and maybe all will be a futile endeavor and there is no city to find!!!!! or maybe you just won´t fly this!!!!

Soon in a Sim near you.......This is the last flight before my vacations so take advantage of it, you might get some prices to my happiness and kindness :icon_lol:due t the last fact!!!!!!:kilroy::icon29:

May the dieties ****alamangal, Rarasvatimangal, Laksmimangal, Raymangal, Saradamanagal and Suryamangal accompany you in this flight!!!!...( Question: Why do all end with "mangal"???) some say its because they all wore long sleeve blouses!!!!:pop4:
