Farmer Wu Zhongyuan, 22, sits in his self-made helicopter in Jiuxian county, Henan province, China on August 1, 2009. The local government later halted Wu's plan to fly the helicopter out of safety concerns. The aircraft, powered by a 150cc engine, took Wu two months to build and cost more than 10,000 yuan ($1,460), China Daily reported. (REUTERS/China Daily) #


Where did all the money go?

The second one reminds me of watching the yanks fly over on their way to bomb Tripoli around 1986?

You have to wonder what's going through the mind of the driver in the car just under the tail...

The wheels don't clear the boundary fence and people crouching next to it by much.

There's a video on YouTube that shows a 747 at that end of the runway, waiting to take off - as he throttles up several people get blown off the beach and into the water!

LOL ^^^ that is a bit like the air strip near RIO - it is quiet easy to walk onto the runway - until the police come and move you along.

Didn't see anything anywhere near that big land there.
