Bruce Campbell from Oregon, bought a retired Boeing 727 airliner and turned it into his home and office. What an awesome way of giving the airplane a second life!
1. The airplane cost Bruce 100,000 when he originally bought it and another 17,000 to have it moved to a workshop. To rent a workshop it cost Bruce another 20,000 where the wings and the tail were removed the process cost 21,600. Finally the airplane was moved to the Oregon woods and that was another 25,000 in moving fees.

5. When the airplane was purchased the floors were ripped out and replaced with see-through flooring. This was done so one could admire the complex and beautiful internals of the airplane.
9. Bruce says the cockpit is an amazing study and reading room which he spends a lot of time in. The cockpit has a screen installed inside of it as well.

11. The bathroom has been brought back to its working state, however Bruce still uses a temporary shower until a solution presents itself. The original water tank is used for things like his clothes washer.

13. Bruce likes to give everything multiple uses. The wings he uses as a cover for his car, and plans to expand by creating a deck on one or both of them.
