Looks like the wings are removed.

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

Never mind Elf on the Shelf, this year it's all about Fuselage in the Garage

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

HOA isn’t going to like that.

When that plane grows its wings, it's still young.

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
