"

Placing 14 letters that are 8m (26ft) by 3m (10ft) cost him £4,000 as it has been " made to last" He Said .

He currently has permission for The Words to be there for six week, so " if you're flying into Gatwick have a look out your left window you should see it about 90 seconds before landing. "
