5. Grounded planes become cosy home

Airplane homes have started to land around the world, becoming popular due to their cost and environmental friendliness. Electrical engineer, Bruce Campbell began work on his Boeing 727 home project in 1999 after being inspired by a radio program about JoAnn Ussery. Ussery lived in a converted Continental Airlines 727 in a beautiful lakeside plot in Benoit, USA. It cost her just $2,000 to purchase the plane and a further $24,000 to convert the interior into a fully functioning home, complete with original fold-down stairs and Jacuzzi.
