Shanzhai of the day: homemade airplane

Ah, homegrown engineers, how we love thee. We'd previously witnessed someone building their own homemade helicopter, so we guess news of a homemade airplane wasn't far along. This one was the result of 150,000RMB and six years of effort by a Chongqing Telecom officer named Peng Cong. What's most amazing, his salary is only 2000RMB a month, which means that he basically put every penny into making this plane. We wonder what he did for food.
