Love episodes like this. It's always nice to see all the variations of "retired" transportation being repurposed like this instead of being dismantled for scrap.

[JagLite]

Neato!
Thanks for telling us the horrendous costs involved so we don't think; "Oh, I wanna do that, it will be cheap"!

[MRP]

The deck on the wing is a fabulous idea! I suggest you call it the Wing Deck...

[stevenkaskus]

This was a great video and if I were wanting to become a experienced bush pilot this would be the school to attend especially with the accomodations you are providing. Great job and wish you every success.

[lrparrish]

I am a retired cargo pilot and really enjoyed the video. A very cool place for sure. Thanks for keeping the spirit alive!

[jenniferdyke]

How cool to live each day enjoying your hobby and vocation as one. Congrats on your success! I really enjoyed seeing what you did to make the airplane resort/home style comfortable. 😃❤️

Wow! Back in 1966, I worked on those DC-6Bs for United Air Lines. I loved working on them I was 'sheetmetal/structural repair" mechanic. I also worked on B-727s, DC-8s CV- 340s, Caravelles, and more. Glad to see that old bird put to good use up there. "Happy Flying"!

20+ years ago, I helped on a heavy maintenance check on this plane, when it was still flying. Nice to see that it wasn't cut up to be used as scrap metal!

[beejmetime]

Holy crap. Not sure whether to feel happy or sorry for these 2. The look in Stephanie's eyes while he was talking.... remorse

[jeroberts]

Talk about unique 😳, and Alaska is such a wild and beautiful place to begin with! It's so fascinating that those two pilots have done ALL of this - the plane accommodations (amazing!), the flight school and the runways... Whoa! It boggles the mind, for sure.

[SunflowerandtheBussLady]

That is really awesome! You thought of everything to make it sturdy, safe, unique and homey!

[marylivich]

This is the most fascinating home that I have ever seen! ♥️

[markcollins]

nice I would have put in some more windows or port holes so you could see the scenery !

[AiraRukawa]

This is the 2nd or 3rd airplane home I’ve seen and it’s the very 1st one that’s not cluttered.

[marieneu]

Wow! This is amazing. Wish it wasn’t so far away so I could see the outside in person. Looks much bigger than 700 square feet.

[joannedobkin]

I heard that Alaska is beautiful. The build is awesome my only question is yes no windows keeps the heat in and light out but aren’t you missing out on that beautiful scenery ?

[RevdUp.Art.Fotografer]

The flight school must be doing well. That’s a lot a cheddar…for each plane.

[trueloveforever]

This is a really awesome renovation . I love it !!

[annajohns]

Not keen on having no windows in either bedroom. House needs some finishing touches. Not for me.

[jaybee]

Very dour - grey & beige - inside.😶 Plus the add on buildings are unexciting (should've hired an architect). Recommend WD40 for that squeaky door.
