The nexttime you find yourself crammed in the a middle seat in coach, drinking a tinybottle of wine in hopes of catching even a few moments of sleep, drift off toimages of the life you might have lived: aboard a private Boeing 747-8. Theseluxury planes are bigger than many of the houses featured on this blog, with4,786 square feet (444 square meters) of cabin space. The plan in this post wasbuilt by Boeing, then finished by Kirkland, Washington-based company GreenpointTechnologies. The final results are nothing to sneeze at with luxury lounges,private bedrooms, and even a full formal dining room. It's no wonder that theU.S. government has said it will buy 747-8s to be the next Air Force One.
