A pilot made an airplane on the roof of his house!

The Dhaka Times Desk A pilot's job is to fly the plane, not build it. But this time a pilot made an airplane on the roof of his house! An incident that happened in Mumbai, India.

According to a BBC news, the young pilot of India, Amol Yadav, has built an airplane and put it on the roof of his house.

According to the news, this pilot from Mumbai announced to his family and friends 7 years ago today that he will build an airplane one day. This time he really proved what he said by actually making an airplane. And he did this on the roof of his own house.

It is known that Amol Yadav has 19 family members. All this family lives in a 5 storied house in Mumbai. The house has no elevator.

While making the aircraft, everything including equipment, lathe machine, compressor, welding machine and a 180 kg weight engine climbed the narrow stairs of the house on the roof of 6 floors! This is how he once started his airplane work.

Amol Yadav has worked with his team on that roof which is smaller than half of a tennis court regardless of winter, summer and monsoon. Finally, last year, his real 6-seater aircraft was built.

Amol Yadav said that his plane's engine is so powerful that it can climb to a height of about 3,920 meters (13,000 feet). The tank of this aircraft can hold enough fuel to cover a distance of about 2,000 km at a time.

Amol Yadav, 41, said, 'Then our job was to bring the plane down and show it to everyone.'

The Indian government organized an exhibition called 'Make in India' where Amol appealed to the organizers to display his aircraft. But permission was not found. Organizers said they did not have enough space to display the aircraft.

After that, with the help of his elder brothers, he talked to the security personnel and made a discussion about the benefits of home-made aircraft and secured a space at the convention ground in Bandra.

Now, to reach the field, every part of the aircraft was taken apart and brought down on the road.

There were two trucks waiting. From there it was trucked to the exhibition grounds and then reassembled.

A few hours after the exhibition began, curious onlookers thronged Amol's 'home-made airplane'. In that crowd were the aviation minister of India and big business leaders.

Amol Yadav says he is all set to build India's first own aircraft. Investors are also enthusiastic enough, he said.

Amol Yadav also said that the local BJP government will allocate 157 acres of land for setting up a factory to make 19-seater aircraft.
