flight instructor turns free airplane into student housing & airbnb

You likely don't think of a cargo jet when considering student housing or

short-term rentals. But that's precisely what flight instructor Jon Kotwicki has

in mind for a Boeing 727 donated by FedEx to the University of Alaska's

Aviation Technology Division.

Thank you for letting me know.

that’s it, for the moment…
