From bamboo sticks and a paper model, Sajjad set out to achieve his dream. By the end of it, he had developed a machine that could take off with the help of a double cylinder engine.
In this YouTube video posted by a group called Mera Passion Pakistan that hopes to promote Pakistan in a positive light. Here is an excerpt from the group’s website:
Not only did the Qazi creation fly, but pilot Qazi Tufail broke the Asian record for highest flight and set a new one at the altitude of 16000ft. Both brothers were honoured by the State of Pakistan with the Tamgha-e-Imtiaz, one of the highest decorations given to a civilian, for their feats.
Sajjad claims that the machine can help deliver food packages to flood victims and also help with surveillance.
Minus the robotic voiceover at the end that sounds like it’s from a telecom commercial, the video is definitely inspiring.
Video rating: Two thumbs up!

Is this video made by Faisal Qureishi of bange dira?
How wonderful.
Great. Pakistan (and India too) should concentrate on such things, rather than on utter non sensical things, like 365/24/7 religion.
Just Fantastic , not that they have built something new but the inspiration behind it , Plus the love for pakistan , Now I have my answer its because of people like these brothers Pakistan is still Afloat with all the bad things that surrond us.
Glad to finally read about these guys in National media. I remember seeing their plane flying over our village
