View of the homemade Airbus A320 jet plane built by Zhu Yue and his team in Kaiyuan city, Liaoning province, November 27 2017. Zhu, once a motorbike repairman in Kaiyuan, built the jet with five buddies. They finished the plane in less than a year. The 38-meter-long, 36-meter-wide and 12-meter-tall aircraft cost 800,000 yuan (121,000 US dollars) and needed more than 40 tonnes of iron. The team plans to create an aviation-themed restaurant.
