Manshū Hayabusa

The Manshū MT-1 Hayabusa (Japanese: 隼, "Peregrine Falcon") was an airliner produced by the Japanese Manchuria Airplane Manufacturing Company in Manchukuo in the late 1930s.[2][3] It was a conventional, low-wing cantilever monoplane with fixed tailwheel undercarriage. The flight deck was fully enclosed and separate from the passenger cabin, which could seat six people. The type equipped Manchukuo National Airways.

This article is about a pre-war Japanese airliner. For the World War II fighter known as the Hayabusa, see Nakajima Ki-43.

gollark: It would probably be necessary to fix the thing where it sometimes teleports you into walls, and you take damage until you somehow fall out.
gollark: I like the Ender IO (Minecraft mod) staff of traveling (short-range personal teleporter), so either that or a really really good computer (for purposes).
gollark: It might be interesting to consider what the graph of the connections would look like. Depending on how far apart habitats are in the network, there could still be a lot of variation between them.
gollark: I mean that you could enclose an area with protected chunks containing impassable-without-breaking-them walls.
gollark: It would only make sense if you were protecting a rather large interior area though.
