    In this particular Sat photo, his 707 is present. The 4-engined jet sits with its nose & cockpit under a canopy, just outside his front door.

    Are you sure that is a canopy? There are other similar white rectangles in the driveway and at the front door. It looks like those are deliberate edits in the image.

    I just saw some other images at ground level. Those sure look like canopies--I stand corrected.

    Who gives a crap? The runway is not long enough to support the 707. The thingie is parked here permanently.

    Strange. I don't see a Boeing 707. The aircraft under the canopy has a wingspan of about 75 ft. The smaller version of the 707 has a wingspan of 130 ft.
