Fosh claimed that inspiration had been drawn from similar pranks in Australia and the US.
"It's my job to make videos and my videos are all about doing silly things, to put a smile on people's faces but just to be silly, I'm glad this stunt has gone down well," he said.

Further explaining how he executed his dastardly plan, Fosh said he went door-knocking in fields "next to Heathrow and Gatwick." Luckily, "a lovely couple said, 'yeah we've got a 80m (262ft) long patch of land we don't have any use for', so I said 'great can I get my tarpaulin out and start hammering pegs into the ground?'."
Each of the 14 letters was 8x3m and cost him £4,000 as they were "made to last."
Currently, Fosh has permission for the words to be displayed for six weeks, and has urged plane travellers to "have a look out your left window you should see it about 90 seconds before landing."

Paramedic Abbey Desmond reacted to the sign on Twitter, where she wrote: "Flying in to Gatwick, just before landing this is what is out the left window… great prank, deffo at Gatwick.
"Honestly we were just looking out the window and saw it! We were about to land and in a state of panic until staff confirmed on landing we were actually at Gatwick," she said.
