PYTCHAir is the name given to a Boeing 727 located in the Brislington area of Bristol. The aircraft was originally a Japan Airlines passenger aircraft which first flew in 1968. It was converted into a private jet and operated by various owners including LarMag Aviation.[citation needed]

It was purchased in 2020 to be used as an office. The relocation was delayed until February 2021, when it was transported by road to Bonville Road, Brislington.[1] As of November 2021, the fuselage is on display and used as an office, filming location and is available for charity events.[2] It has been featured as a “quirky" and "cool" office.[3][4]

In March 2022 the fuselage was covered in street art by Bristol street artists Harriet Wood, Curtis Hylton and Hasan Kamil.[5] The art work drew media attention.[6]

In early 2024 it was added to Airbnb and has been referred to as the "coolest"[7] and "wildest"[8] property on the platform by various media outlets.

In January 2025 it was widely reported that the aircraft had been owned and used by Pablo Escobar.[9][10][11][12]
