The retired helicopter, which was purchased at an auction of the Ministry of Defense, was turned into a pod tray. The 17-meter Royal Navy was bought by farmer Stirling Martin Stidman for £ 7,000 ($ 9,000).

Now he turned it into a holiday home, which has a shower room and a kitchenette in which a family of six can sleep. The helicopter retired from active service in 1994 and was used in naval training until 2002.

"We saw the Sea Kings retire, and they flew over the Wallace Monument, which was pretty amazing," said Steadman BBC Scotland . "Then in the newspaper the next day they talked about selling them, and I just thought:" It would be an idea - something completely different. "

Mr. Stidman retained the sliding door of the helicopter and replaced the tail rotors with those that he bought on the Internet. The helicopter now has a double and triple bed, as well as a single bed in the tail. The curved walls were insulated, the wooden panels and painted, which gives the internal visibility of the inverted boat hull.
