Opening Minds
Campbell’s calling in life is to have a positive and lasting impact on the world, not just for the environment, but for humanity as well. Innovation is his passion, due most likely to his previous career as an electrical engineer.
Nothing excites him more than upcycling decommissioned airplanes. Just the thought gets him giddy and excited. Standing next to the home he built himself, he said, “My goal is to change humanity’s behavior in this little niche.”
Part Of A Small Group
Campbell is not the only person to have built a home out of a retired jet plane. In fact, all over the world, from America to Europe and South America, people have converted aircrafts into livable and functional spaces. Martin Todd, an Aircraft Fleet Recycling Association spokesman, said that the group “is happy to see aircraft fuselages re-purposed in a range of creative ways. We would want them to be recovered and to be re-used in an environmentally sustainable fashion.”
