Since the possibility of flying always seemed distant to him, the inventor had a very original idea.
Cambodian Chrach Pov fulfilled his dream of living in an airplane: after saving for 30 years, the man built an “airplane house” inspired by his dream of flying.
Pov modeled his home on an airplane, Reuters reported. The property is completed with a structure similar to a fuselage that rises 6 meters above sea level. On the ground floor there are two bedrooms and bathrooms.
The construction is concrete. It has simulated engines, wings and a tailplane. It is, without a doubt, the new attraction of the district of Siem Reap province.

“I’m so excited to be able to fulfill my dream now, even though it’s not 100 percent done yet,” said the inventor.
Chrach believes he spent around $20,000 on the project. What follows will be a cafeteria that will be located next to the house so that all those who go to see their creation can have a coffee.

Even so, Pov still hopes to get the chance to fly in a real plane one day, despite admitting that it’s something that makes him nervous.

Speaking of spectacular houses…
In the middle of last year, the media reflected the creation of the architect Miquel Subiràs and his team, who built a house capable of emerging from the ground in 6 minutes and disappearing without leaving a trace. The fabulous property that amazes the world is in the province of Girona, Spain.
They build a house that emerges from the ground in 6 minutes and disappear without a trace.
Those responsible for the design and construction in a wooded area in the Catalan municipality of Montagut are Subiràs and Bianna Creative Lab, who also pursue an objective linked to the environment.
The structure, baptized as IX (which in different dialects of the area means “exit”) amazes because in an almost inexplicable way it sprouts from the ground in just a few minutes.
Based on this characteristic, the creators of the project speculate that the house can be hidden when it is not used and, therefore, reduce its environmental impact.
Those responsible for the creation are the architect Miquel Subiràs and his team.
The house emerges from the ground and rises six meters by means of a hydraulic system developed in the production center that Bianna Creative has in Celrà (Girona).
On the other hand, and in a commitment to sustainability, all the materials that make it up are “noble, recoverable and recyclable”.
