A student from Covenant University, Otta, Ogun State, has achieved an awe-inspiring feat by constructing a small-scale airplane as part of his project work.
Identified as Captain Kuldek, the visionary student embarked on this ambitious endeavor during his 300-level studies and poured an immense amount of effort into the project’s realization.
Undoubtedly, Captain Kuldek’s journey was marked by numerous challenges, but his unwavering determination led him to overcome every obstacle that came his way.
Expressing his sentiments through a Twitter post, he shared the highs and lows of his venture, affirming that he never allowed setbacks to deter him.
The captivating video footage accompanying the tweet showcased his tenacity in action. One video depicted the airplane’s test flight, revealing initial difficulties as the aircraft struggled to achieve stable flight.
Another video exhibited the aircraft’s unfortunate collision with an object during a test flight, highlighting the complexities of such a project.
However, Captain Kuldek’s narrative takes a triumphant turn. Despite the setback of a crash occurring just days before his project defense, his indomitable spirit prevailed.
His determination and resilience shone through as he not only rebuilt the airplane but also restored it to its former glory.
In his words;
“I built and entire AIRCRAFT for my final-year project. If I pour out my heart concerning this project, I won’t finish typing but in the end, I’m super excited I was able to bring the dream of an ambitious 300-level boy to life.”I’m really grateful to every single person that helped and supported me in one way or another. Special shout out to Nelson Elijah, my emergency engineer and spare part supplier. “And yes, the plane crashed a few days to defence, but I was able to fix it and make it look beautiful again.”
