    Damn, I’m sure a Mig-29 would have looked great on my lawn. Just gotta build a mount so it looks cool and dynamic

      The HOA would most likely object, maybe try to get a permit from the municipality as historic landmark.

        Hey friend, I have a quick tip for you!

        If you have a Warplane, you get dictate terms. Your HOA could “object”, but you can then make the HOA a “historic landmark” in response!

        I’d bet your HOA has spent most of its money on lawn inspectors and other such leeches, and not nearly enought on AA defenses to stop you from raining warheads on foreheads

          So you probably have a rule about leaving defunct war machines unattended on your yard without an explicit permit for the exact model and manufacture year

            As long as it is properly demilitarized it’s usually fine, you might need a permit for the mount. Most of the issue would probably be leaving enough space to your plot border.

            There was some brit living in germany who put a demilitarized tank on his lawn and that is still there

          Don’t you guys have a staircase that’s too historic to remove but too outdated to use?

          edit: Oh, HOAs, not historic landmarks. Carry on.
