    Had seen this plane & Bruce some time ago. I marvel on all he has accomplished. Knowing from restoring 7 of my personal homes & lands they each were on, is very time consuming. My professional life I never rented. I would find a great, old historical home & buy & move into. Every possible hour or day or night not on duty, would be restoring. I was able to completely restore each home over many years before my professional life took me to another assignment location. Everyone must realize, restoration is a time consuming event. To restore a commerical jet liner is not something I would ever tackle in life. For Bruce he had a real desire & he is a work in progress in his journey he is living. Hats off to Bruce. Everyone at some point in living has a vision of what they would like to accomplish. Not everyone goes beyound. While others step out of their comfort zone & dive into their vision in real time. This becomes the comfort zone.

Repurposing these pieces in a way that doesn't require a multi-truck towing team, etc, would be a great thing to see. However, I love to see unique homes and people passionate about their lives.

    Living/repurposing planes as homes is really cool idea. Sure, they're huge, but they're probably a great idea in places prone to earthquakes. I'd be super interested to see someone fully (esthetically and architecturally) convert one of these planes. I wish Dylan/editor hadn't included the footage of his shoe/germ fixation. It made him seem more odd right out of the gate.
