The sky’s the limit for two young engineers in Nigeria after they built an entire working aircraft from recycled scrap. Muazu Sani and James Steven Tanko used parts found locally for their plane, including a jerrycan, old wheelbarrow tires, a motorcycle clutch and an old water hose. And yes, the plane runs brilliantly, as seen in footage captured at Kontagora Airstrip. The pair hope to carry on inventing and designing, hopefully securing backing to become full-time engineers.
