Boeing 727 aircraft turned it into the home. Bruce Campell - a 64-year-old retired electrical engineer from Hillsboro, Oregon. When he was 24 y.o. he bought a 10-acre piece of land for 23,000 dollars in the woods near Hillsboro. Then Campbell bought a big piece of land and in 1999, he bought a Boeing 727 aircraft from Olympic Airways for a whopping 100,000 dollars and then turned it into the most unique home on earth. 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, but then Campbell heard about a home someone else had built.
