What can you do with $30,000 and some open space? Buy a Boeing 727, convert it
into a home, and be the coolest neighbor in the world.

It was a stroke of luck that the Boeing airplane was forced in retirement just
as Joanne Ussary, 52, was looking for a new home. With connections to the
airport through her brother-in-law Bob Farrow, an air traffic controller at
Greenwood Airport, Joanne was able to get a look at the airplane/potential new
home.

Joanne was immediately fascinated with the idea of restoring the plane into a
home and purchased the Boeing 727 for $2000.

Moving the plane from Greenwood airport to her lakeside plot in Benoit was the
next step in the process. Joanne hired the Bo Branch House Moving Company to
carefully transport her 127-foot-long airplane 69 miles to its new location.

Once the plane was properly situated on Joanne’s property, she was able to begin
the renovating process. The overhaul began in December of 1994 and lasted for
four months until Joanne was finally able to reside in her lakeside plane home.
