In the late 90’s, electrical engineer Bruce Campbell spent approximately $100,000 for an aircraft.<\/h2>\n

The Boeing 727 was used, scrapped of valuable parts, and destined to become a project spanning decades and costing more than $200K. In Campbell’s opinion, the retired jetliner would be an ideal home, much better than the conventional \u201cstick homes\u201d that most of us live in.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The aircraft is less fragile, Bruce claims in his blog, more secure, and much easier to maintain and keep clean.<\/strong> Dust and insects are not an issue due to the carefully sealed exterior, whereas natural adversities such as storms and earthquakes will leave the aircraft seemingly unaffected, in comparison to the conventional structures that we choose to call \u201chome\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"This<\/p>\n

Not only that, but the aircraft provides tons of space that can be used in a multitude of ways, and it is also a great way to utilize used jetliners<\/strong>, instead of having them completely scrapped. Last but not least, and personal opinion of mine, how cool would it be if you could tell people \u201coh, you know, I just, uh, I live in an airplane house in the woods\u201d?<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Bruce Campbell<\/strong> describes his home’s construction in detail and gives step by step instructions on how to create your own airplane home<\/strong> in his website, airplanehome.com<\/em>.<\/p>\n

It is the richest and possibly only way to contact him, in a way, since he does not wish to socialize via social media handles such as Facebook of LinkedIn, according to his last update in the blog, dated July 2012.<\/p>\n

Apart from a helpful guide to an extraordinary choice of lifestyle, Campbell’s website also gives us an insight into the workings of an eccentric, yet obviously bright mind.<\/strong> That is evident not only by the descriptions of how he developed his project but also in the way he writes and describes his reasons behind making the choice of turning an aircraft into a home.<\/p>\n
