When Rick & Billie Broome added a sunroom to their house they had to hire a crane to lift in the primary component of the decor. Measuring 15,800 pounds, 50 feet long, 12.5 feet wide and 27.5 feet tall, this wasn’t a fancy hot tub or mahogany bar. The Broomes built their sunroom around the front section of a United Boeing 727. The idea came to Rick Broome, a plane nut (needless to say), in a dream when he was 16. An artist, his nearby studio work table, resembles a United Airline ticket counter. He’s hooked up the first-class lavatory, heat & A/C, and has plans to paint the floor of the room and ceiling of the cockpit so he can pretend he is in flight.
