A businessman in Germany has spent more than £100,000 on buying a fighter jet and having it positioned on the top of his factory in Stuttgart.<\/p>\n
Hartmut Rehorsch invested in the German air force fighter plane with the intention of placing it on the roof of his welding equipment company's factory.<\/p>\n
However, it has not gone down well with everybody, as some local residents have complained it is a blot on the landscape and entirely unattractive.<\/p>\n
District director Jurgen Horrmann is quoted by Metro as saying: "We have often fought with Mr Rehorsch over such things. This is a pure demonstration of power by Mr Rehorsch and he wants to show us that he can do what he wants."<\/p>\n
There is also some confusion over whether he requires planning approval for the display of the jet.<\/p>\n
Mr Rehorsch has suggested that by investing in the aircraft, he is paying tribute to all of the deceased pilots from Germany's past.
