Man Transforms a Boeing 727 Into a Forest Home

Innovative plan

Ever since he was young, Campbell has had an affinity for tinkering with old objects and creating new things. His plan for this piece of land was to use it as the place to build a home for himself, a home he wanted to fashion out of several different freighters. It seemed to be a very innovative plan. However, his direction changed after Campbell learned about a home someone else had built.

About two decades after he first came up with his plan, Bruce Campbell heard about Joanne Ussery, a hair dresser from Mississippi. She had bought a Boeing 727 and transformed it into a home. Her previous home had burned down, so she chose to renovate a functional airplane next to a quiet river. This news inspired Campbell, and he decided to change his plans.
