The Coach Airways aircraft can be seen from the highway. — MELODY L. GOH/The Star

In the past two years or so, those who have gone on a road trip to Melaka – or further south – from the Klang Valley or anywhere else up north, might have seen a lone plane parked by the side of a road.

It’s a curious thing to see, especially since there was hardly any signboard around to explain the plane’s existence. Google did not provide any answers either.
