Chinese farmer builds Airbus A320 replica to fulfil childhood dream
A Chinese farmer-turned-mechanic has constructed a life-sized Airbus A320 replica to fulfil his childhood dream of owning a plane. It took Zhu Yue two years and $400,000 to build the replica, which has been made from over 50 tons of steel. The engine 'turbines' in the replica can actually spin, however, the aircraft replica does not fly.
