A
Boeing 747, which was built for Pan Am and eventually retired from service with
Tower Air is now being turned into a house.
The jumbo jet was the 28th built and parts of it have been
airlifted to the top of a mountain in Mailbu, California where they are being
integrated into the construction of what eventually will be a Green home
according to a report from Fox News. Designers say the aluminum make-up of the
aircraft components are key to achieving the environmental goals of the home.

And now we have a Boeing 307 Stratoliner turned into a boat.
Scroll down just a little.
