Homemade airplane to entertain diners

There is never a shortage of ingenuity among Chinese grassroots inventors. In another case of their creativity and DIY ability, a farmer in Central China's Henan province made a "plane restaurant" that resembles a Boeing 737, Chinanews.com reported.

It took one year for 61-year-old Wang Lanqun to make the 35-meter-long airplane with " metallic materials", which cost more than 150,000 yuan ($23,000). When completed, Wang intends to use this steel plane as a restaurant.
