The ultimate man cave

Via Survival

Ivo Zdarsky, who escaped Communist Czechoslovakia in an aircraft he built himself in 1984, is the only resident of a Utah ghost town so remote the nearest grocery store is 160 miles away.

The 51-year-old lives alone in an airplane hangar in the abandoned town in Utah surrounded by three runways so he can develop his designs for an experimental aircraft.

Mr Zdarsky, who manufactures plane propellers, has named his place Lucin International Airport although the only plane that lands in the town a 180 miles away from of Salt Lake City is his own.

His home, a large room within a steel hangar, is outfitted with a 90-inch flat screen TV, a drum set, a computer and an inflatable hot tub which is flipped Linkupside down and covered with a sheet to use as a sofa, reports the new York Times.

He also has an impressive arsenal of weapons causally left out in plain view around his home including a 308 sniper rifle, a 223 sniper rifle, a shotgun and a Belgium FS2000.

'I use them on the badgers because they dig in my ground. You cannot imagine the damage these badgers do.' Mr Zdarsky told the Times.
