Jordanian travels the world from his basement

This Jordanian is flying around the world

from the comfort of his own basement

Location: Amman, Jordan

Mohammad Malhas always dreamed of flying planes

but was unable to pursue these aspirations due to financial reasons

so instead he spent four years building a cockpit in his basement

(SOUNDBITE) (Arabic) FLYING ENTHUSIAST WHO BUILT HIS OWN COCKPIT, MOHAMMAD MALHAS, SAYING:

"I had a great passion for flying and therefore decided to build this cockpit, I built it at home in my basement and this space became a space for flying enthusiasts. / This space is like an airport in my house, when I come here I feel like I'm going to an airport to take off and go to another country. I sometimes ask my wife to come and participate in my flying but she asks for her passport to be (officially) stamped so she really travels."

MALHAS LANDING WHILE SAYING (Arabic): "We are now landing in Heathrow airport. Passengers should fasten their seatbelts and enjoy London."
