Looking for an inexpensive structure to park on your land to use as a house?  Old shipping containers are always an option, but perhaps you would rather have an old airplane fuselage! Inhabitat.com says, “Boeing 727 and 737 are the best-selling commercial planes and therefore the most common fuselage types in these graveyards. The fuselages are sold completely stripped, and at a ridicously cheap price - lending themselves to a great building material.” And from gearlive.com: “The plane set Joanne Ussary back $2,000.00, cost $4,000.00 to move, and $24,000.00 to renovate. That’s not bad for a $30,000.00 investment. The stairs open with a garage door remote, and one of the bathrooms is still intact. And let’s not forget the personal jacuzzi in the cockpit. Sweet.” Here is a pretty good list of airplane boneyards to help you in your search.  Just call them up and make a deal!
