Building A Chopper From Junk

During the flight to Sibu, I came across this article about building a chopper from junk. There's a 24 years old physics undergraduate from Nigeria - Mubarak Muhammad Abdullahi, uses pieces of old cars and motorbikes in the back yard at home and builds his own helicopter from parts.

According to him, the helicopter is powered by a second hand Honda Civic car engine and kitted out with seats from an old Toyota saloon car. While other parts come from the carcass of a Boeing 747 which crashed near Kano some years ago.

All these sound impressive to me and I would just say this guy is so smart , so brilliant and so creative (but not until i have a crash on him yet laa, bleeekkk! =P). However, he said the government response to his chopper project has been underwhelming. Sorry to hear that. =(

Afterthat, I started to think: What if this guy is from Malaysia? What if the project is funded by Malaysia government? What if the project is sponsored by Perodua and Proton (since that Nigerian guy uses Honda and Toyota parts)? How would the helicopter looks like?

And here, I proudly present to you the master piece of my imagination, taa-lang~~

Cool huh?!
