Man Turns Retired Boeing 727 Air-plane into Fully Functioning House [Photos]

 Old airplane parts turned into sleek new furniture is nothing new, but what about turning an entire airplane into a home in the woods? Based outside of Portland, Oregon, Bruce Campbell is an engineer who converted this retired Boeing 727 commercial airliner into a fully functioning home with electricity and running water, on a wooded suburban lot he bought during his younger days.
 Calling it a "used multimillion dollar aerospace quality home," Campbell gives his reasons as to why recycled airliners can be superior candidates for conversion into domestic places:

    When properly executed, the remarkable appeal of a retired jetliner as a home springs from the magnificent technology and beauty of the sculptured structure itself. Jetliners are masterful works of aerospace science, and their superlative engineering grace is unmatched by any other structures people can live within. They're incredibly strong, durable, and long lived. And they easily withstand any earthquake or storm. Their interior is easy to keep immaculately clean because they are sealed pressure canisters, so dust and insects can't intrude from the outside. And they're quite secure - when all the doors are closed and locked, they're highly resistant to intruders. So the human hearts inside feel wonderfully safe and comfortable.

    And their interiors are exceptionally modern and refined, and provide a wealth of unique amenities, superb lighting and climate control, and overwhelming storage space. Once the rows of seats are removed, their profound appeal as a family living environment becomes immediately obvious.

With the Aircraft Fleet Recycling Association (AFRA) estimating that there will be over 500 aircrafts retired each year over the next two decades, there's a lot of airliners that could be transformed into excellent homes. Campbell envisions that this surplus could become actual communities, if more people jump onboard with this idea.....
