Airplane Home


     If you happened to stumble across this home, you'd be forgiven for thinking there had been a terrible airplane accident. That's because Bruce Campbell, a retired electrical engineer, lives, believe it or not, in retired Boeing 727 fuselage. The industrious recycler Bruce has had his old plane placed in woods near Portland, Oregon, where he lives happily amongst some of the original seating and even the airplane-style toilet. Bruce believes every old plane should be 'upcycled' like his has been, declaring on his website, "Jetliners can, and should, be transformed into wonderful homes – retirement into an aerospace class castle should be every airliner's constructive fate. They should never be mindlessly scrapped."
He has transformed the inside of the plane into a workable living space.

There are more pictures, here is the link to the site to see them:http://www.awesomeinventions.com/boeing-727-conversion-home/

  1. I saw on television once a guy who was so obsessed with a Boeing or some other commercial airline, that he got all the parts and re-created the interior of the plane. He also said he spent somewhere around 5-7 hours a day in it (or some similarly absurd amount of time). But I commend him for it; he went all out with his passion.
