Why I have an airplane fuselage in my showroom window!

This is a Airbus 319, Airbus 320 actual cross-section of the aircraft. I didn't really build this thing in here and put it in the front window really to sell air buses or Boeings. The real reason was a marketing gimmick to catch the people's eyes in the window.

But whenever people come to see me here, or anybody walks in up the street, they usually get put in here for a little while. They get the feeling of sitting in the ultimate corporate jet. So this is really the feel inside. On the windows, it's like you're flying through moving clouds.

We usually have a separate dining room here. We have Med in here, we have lunches or breakfasts here. This is absolutely the best table for a meal in London. You don't get any smell of the cars, you don't get the noise, and you get a great view of the park.

Mostly back then, I didn't really have much of an interest in jets. Even if you don't have an interest in jets, I feel like when the time comes in your life, something in the horizon, you just don't forget this place. Especially if you live in London, you're driving down this road multiple times a week, so it's ingrained in your mind.

I mean, really, between Belg Grav and Night Bridge, Mayfair, anybody that comes to London, they're always going to come through here, even if they have to go work in the city.
