How cool is that!. I'm gonna do the same...out of all those F-14s the US Navy now have kicking around. I think i'll have a 'Martin-Baker toilet'.

What a great idea. But to finish it will cost several million dollars. Ouch.....

If shes just gunna spend millions of dollars   and it seems she has plenty, i would just buy a working 747, revamp it so you can live comfortably and then fly all over the world. You could also put a car in the cargo area and then spend some time in that town. The plane could be like an RV i guess  ;D

you'd need more than a few million like she has, you'd have to pay for the pilot, landing fees, fuel etc etc, the list goes on forever, not forgetting servicing the engines

you'd need 20 or 30 million and you'd need a steady income to keep that kinda lifestyle.

AAHH, we can dream eh?   ::)  ;)

It's a nice idea, but I prefer this concept:

This is great!  ;D
In particular, she has been asked by the civil aviation authorities to mark the elements of the plane visible from the sky to show that they are not part of a crashed aircraft.
