Oleg Deshin dreamed of building an airplane since his childhood. After 20 years in Australia, his dream finally came true. Two years ago Oleg and his wife Dina finished assembling their own two-seat aircraft, all in their garage at home. Oleg and Dina told SBS Russian about the process of assembling their flying dream and what they felt when the dream finally took to the skies.
