A British family spent £140,000 over two years to build their own plane.

Ashok Aliceril, 38, his wife Abhilasha Dubey, 35, six-year-old Tara and three-year-old Diya can't wait for their first flight after completing the 1,500-hour, £140,000 project. Ashok, from Billericay, Essex, who has a pilot's licence, said: “It's like a new toy, only much more exciting.” Abhilasha says: “Ashok has worked so hard for the last two years and now our dream has finally come true. We started saving money during the first lockdown and we knew we always wanted to have our own plane and we were saving a lot of money in the first few months so we decided to give it a try. The girls can't wait to get into the air, they've only flown a few times but never with their dad as a pilot so I'm really excited for them to find out what it's like "The family hopes to take their first airplane flight in the coming months.
