Wayne Newton, after leaving his private jet at Oakland International Airport in Detroit several years ago, relocated it to a more convenient place—his backyard.

TMZ reports that Wayne Newton left the $2 million jet sitting at the airport for three years because the maintenance costs were too high for him to handle, according to airport employees.

Newton reportedly paid for the years of storage fees and and finally had the plane shipped to his residence, the Casa de Shenandoah estate in Las Vegas.

In order to get the plane from Michigan to Nevada, it was taken apart, and then reassembled in Nevada after shipping.

It now stands tall in Newton’s estate.
