jackalope Report post Posted April 21, 2006 I thought about doing that with a Vulcan bomber back when the government were selling them off cheap... A Vulcan isn't really that big and the wing spars run through the fuselage - not ideal for living space! An old Il-76 would be a good bet if you really wanted a cheap plane to convert to a house. You'll be able to get this one cheap: http://www.airliners.net/open.file/0499810/M/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
