The 'taxi' is a small Swiss aeroplane called a 'Pilatus Porter'.

call sb. sth. 叫某人…be called 被称为…
aeroplane called a ‘Pilatus Porter’ 是过去分词短语,作 aeroplane 的定语。The instrument was called a clavichord.
一个单独的分词作定语时则往往放在所修饰的名词/代词前面
  • He landed in a deserted car park.
  • a race across the Atlantic.
  • written English 书面语
  • spoken English 口语
  • colloquial language 口语
过去分词(done)修饰名词做定语时是作为被动状态来翻译的。

The most surprising thing about it,however, is that it can land anywhere: on snow, water, or even on a ploughed field.

系动词后的 that 引出的是表语从句(连接词不可省略)。而宾语从句中的 that 可省略，定语从句中的关系词在从句中做宾语时可以省略。

什么(主语)是什么事(用一句话做表语)
