What students get up to when they're snowed in

The grounds of Cranfield's School of Engineering, like much of the UK last week, was under a blanket of snow.

While practically all the nation's children were busy tabogganing down hills on trays and building snowmen the students here were busily crafting an aircraft. Here are a few pictures of show off their efforts.

I, for one, am disappointed they couldn't engineer any landing gear. And could it be an A340? Hmm, a variation on a theme.
