Li Shilong drives his self-made airplane in Yancheng, East China's Jiangsu province, March 4, 2015. Li, 26, spent more than 100,000 yuan ($15,990) to build the airplane, which is 6 meters long and has a wingspan of 9 meters, in three months. An airplane enthusiast, he quit his job in October last year and went back to his hometown to build the plane with all his savings. However, the propeller was damaged on its first flight. Li said he will purchase new parts to realize his “airplane dreams”. (Photo/CFP)
