Singaporean photographer snaps rare pictures onboard North Korean aircraft

SINGAPORE - Singaporean Aram Pan, 38, is one lucky man.

The freelance photographer was given rare access to take pictures in North Korea last month while on different aircraft types owned by the state-owned airline Air Koryo. Usually, no pictures are allowed on any of the aircraft.

Mr Pan did so while on a tour with UK-based company Juche Travel, which has been running Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) aviation tours for the past three years, The Daily Mail reported.
