Joanne's front door is at the top
of the plane's steps, but you
don't need
a ticket
or a passport when you visit.
There are three bedrooms, a
living room, a
modern
kitchen and a luxury bathroom.
The bathroom is in the cockpit,
with the
bath under
the windows. Next to this is
Joanne's bedroom in the first
class section of
the plane.
Then there's the living room
with four emergency exit doors,
which she
opens on
summer evenings. On the wall
there's a photo of the plane
flying for
Continental
Airlines from Florida to the
Caribbean. " The plane is 27
years old and
it's the best
home in the world,' says Joanne.
' It has all the things you want in
a
home: a
telephone, air conditioning ,a
cooker, a washing machine,
even a
dishwasher. It's
always very warm, even in
winter, and it's big, 42 meters
long. My
grandchildren
love running up and down. And
my friends love parties here, but
there
aren't any
flight attendant to serve them
their drinks!"
The plane costs Joanne just $
2,000. “Next time,” she says, “I
want a Boeing
747, not 727, because they have
an upstairs and a downstairs
and I want to
go
upstairs to bed”
