B727 To Be Buried In CA As Work Of Art

Post by cHabu »

Kern Planning Commission OK Was Unanimous.

Bakersfield.com reports the Kern County Planning Commission voted 3-0 last week to allow Swiss artist Christoph Buchel to dig the big hole on his property near Boron, CA, connect it to a parking lot through a 400-foot tunnel, and to bury the plane in a manner which will allow visitors to reach it underground. The engines and fuel will be removed, and new electrical, plumbing and ventilation installed, and the interior will be left looking like a typical airliner cabin.
