C144

2 amateur campers, Jason & Kamal stumbled across what looked like remains of a C-47B aircraft employed by the American militaries to deliver food to their comrades which had crashed in Malaysia in 1945 during WW2. The dual looked at each other, their sunlit faces from the 3 o’clock sun beaming with joy. The findings will spin them quick money. There will be an “Exclusive” expedition to the crash site for the adventurers with pockets deeper than their curiosity.

The group of 10 that signed up for the expedition comprised nationals from Singapore, China, Thailand and the United Kingdom. After 16 hours off the beaten track, the two 4WDs brought the group of 10 into one of the deepest parts of the tropical jungle. Without a flicker of sunlight at 15:00 hour, the group soon found that they were lost.

As usual the blame game started. Tension and conflicting suggestions tore the group into 3. They would each find their own way. In the next 144 hours, what mystery awaits them in the jungle? Can they find their way to the crash site?
