And finally… Jet set
The turbine of a Vickers VC10 jet has been transformed into a mobile caravan thanks to a former RAF technician.
Steve Jones spent only about £4,000 and roughly 1,000 hours converting an engine nacelle from a Vickers VC10 into 13-foot four-bed caravan for himself and his family to use.
Starting in January 2020, he completed the project on the caravan, which comes complete with a kitchen, in March.
Steve explained that the project was six years in the planning. First he had to be able to buy the engine and then work out how he was going turn his idea into a reality.
The clever use of space means there is enough room for four people to sleep inside, as well as cook on the specially adapted hob and kitchen counters. The caravan pod weighs 1,300kg.
The extraordinary transformation also made an appearance on Channel 4’s George Clarke’s Amazing Spaces.
