Domicile Departures
With the housing market crashing, U.S. homeowners are becoming increasingly resourceful. Even so, Jo Ann Ussery’s domestic life stands out.
After an ice storm destroyed her home in 1994, she bought a decommissioned Continental 727 jet for $2000 and spent an additional $24,000 renovating it. A construction team set the plane’s upper half over Lake Whittington in Mississippi, anchoring its tail in concrete.
Years later, Jo Ann moved into a 3-bedroom home, replete with a living/dining area, bathroom, and kitchen. Seventy-six side windows provide light (not to mention, a pleasing water view), while the overhead luggage compartments are great for storage.
Oh, and there’s also a Jacuzzi in the cockpit.
