Star: Woman reveals her boyfriend is a 45-ton passenger plane named Schatz

Michele Kobke said it was love at first sight when she first laid eyes on the Boeing 737 800 – feeling attracted to his wings, winglets and thrusters.

The 29-year-old said her family reacted “pleasantly” to the revelation she was dating an aircraft that can seat 175 people inside.

Even though Schatz can’t fit into her bedroom, she sleeps with him every night by cuddling up to a 1.6metre model or one of his components.

She first met Shatz at Berlin Tegel Airport, and the couple now plan to get married.

She does however find the long-distance element of her relationship difficult as Schatz flies around the world.

And she added when they get married they are going to live together in a hangar, defending it as a “special kind of love, and it doesn’t hurt anyone”.
“Every type of aircraft looks a bit different and my darling is the most updated version. My love is not easy, because I only meet him if I fly with my 737-800.

“In Hangar and Taxiway is not possible to be with him, so we don’t have much time together to enjoy each other’s company.”
