Michele Kobke, from Berlin, has been in a ''physical'' relationship with the Boeing 737-800 aircraft for the past six years and now intends to tie the knot with the plane, whom she has lovingly named Schatz, which is German for darling.

Michele said: ''I want to marry him in the hangar and spend the whole night with him.

''I wouldn't want to put on a white dress, but dress really smartly with black trousers and a black blazer.''

The 30-year-old admits she can't wait for her big day, with the pair getting hitched on March 18.

She said: ''I want to have someone marry us and say, 'Do you want to marry your 737-800' and I say, 'Yes', we kiss and then I'm immortalised with him and we can be together forever.''

Michele - who says gets ''sweaty palms'' when she touches the plane - insists that their relationship is ''normal''.

She said: ''It's like a normal relationship. We have relaxing evenings together and when we go to bed, we cuddle and fall asleep together.''
