[QUOTE=dije;38058165]What if he made it able to fly? Flying home![/QUOTE]
Moving would be impossibly expensive and that this isn't flying anytime soon
A private jet without seats could probably hold an entire apartment-sized house, be able to fly, and would be way cooler
If you go through the trouble of buying a plane just so that you can convert it into a house, atleast do it well.

Engineers have a certain mindset. They think like this: If it works, it works. Now, this doesn't work so well for everything though.
[QUOTE=SCopE5000;38058073]Looks really kinda shitty inside... thought he'd have plasterboarded it up and gone for modern appeal like that hostel above, instead of this...

Which kinda looks a bit crap.[/QUOTE]
I feel like that probably COULD look really cool with all the hidden stuff behind the paneling visible and all, but it's just that everything else is just set to the sides of the center aisle and looks really disorganized. With some nicer looking furniture and some walls for rooms or something, I think it could be really neat.
Hopefully if the guy makes another airplane home, it'll be something more spacious like a 767 or 777 and he can make it a bit nicer to look at lol
Interesting he was be able to get that for $100,000 with that much of the airplane still intact, its probably worth more in scrap. He should really contact a bone yard and see if he can get the side paneling for it and some proper floor boards so it doesn't look like shit.

I have bunch bunch of relatives who are engineers (Including two that used to work at NASA) and that's the sort of thing they'd do :v:

[QUOTE=download;38058158]I take it you don't understand how impossibly difficult it is to weld thin sheets of aluminium, do you?[/QUOTE]
You'd need to be a damn wizard to weld aluminum almost perfectly.
Fuck that shit.
Lisbon used to have a Strip Club in an old airplane by the airport. Then the owner died in a bomb-attack

If I could get a room like that, the cockpit would be undergoing quite a bit of turbulence.
I can't imagine living in a plane, it def needs to be reordered. Or look like the jumbo hostels thing a couple posts back.
I thought the title said that a man converted a house into a Boeing 727.
That'd be significantly harder.
