Bruce Campbell of Oregon, U.S. is converting a Boeing 727-200 to a dream home in the woods, the Daily Mail reported.

A few years ago Campbell purchased the aircraft for $100,000 and decided to gut it and create a living space.

The airplane home, which still needs renovations to make it completely habitable, has running water and three restrooms. It is also wired for electricity. While there is a shower, figuring out how to install plumbing remains a challenge.

Campbell says his "experiment" to turn a plane into a home is not for everyone, but he "absolutely loves it."

He's also created a website that highlights different features of the home.

男子将飞机改造成房子

       据英国《每日邮报》报道,美国俄勒冈州的布鲁斯·坎贝尔正在把一架波音727-200飞机改造成树林中的梦幻房屋。

       几年前,坎贝尔以10万美元买下了这架飞机,决定将飞机掏空,建造成一处住所。

       这所飞机房子要是完全适合居住还得需要修缮,不过现在有了自来水和三间厕所。房子还布置了电线。虽然有了淋浴,但如何装管道还是个挑战。

       坎贝尔表示,他将飞机改造成住所的“实验”并不适合每个人,但他“绝对很喜欢这个”。

       他还创建了一个网站,重点说明了房子不同的布置。
