My wife and I went to this restaurant that was near a small airport and the wildest part was that all the houses along side the airport had airplane garages.

They must've bought it here on a trailer as it's quite narrow street and no airport anywhere near.

You can fit most things in a garage. As this guy is proving... The sky is the limit

I have this feeling that for this plane the sky might actually be a limit to far

'ts not a garage. it's a car port. a garage would have a door.

and it's not a car port either, I guess, technically now it's an airport lol.

There's a kit airplane company called Van's. My dad has been building a 2-seater single-prop in his garage for about 15 years now

Hah, just yesterday I was looking up construction projects that took so long that they were obsolete upon completion. I am reminded of that.

Reminds me of the classic driveway Beagle bug in GTASA
