      They should of left the plane for someone who would actually restore it. It is bad taste to do what they did. I find it hard to believe that they couldn't find anyone else willing to take on the project.

    • @BaddaBigBoom
      @BaddaBigBoom Před rokem +17

      I completely agree. I think it would have been great if it could have been restored as a static exhibit, cleaned out, rotten metal replaced, cleaned off on the outside, re-painted, replica engine nacelles fabricated ...even with no real engines inside it would have looked great. Jimmy considered it as an Air B&B and I thought that was great idea, they could have had all the interior restored to its former glory, had a modern multi media system 'sensitively' installed with lots of footage of The King on tap, maybe a flight simulator up front, emergency exits and fire precautions all fully functional. That's me though, ever the fantacist :-)
      I have been to Memphis and I'm sure I remember a similar plane there just outside the entrance to Gracelands.

    Please Jimmy! Let me help you create something special with this plane. My family has had personal stories with Elvis. My Mama Lil opened the previous famous Western Steakhouse and Lounge in Memphis in the early 50's. Elvis knew my family and regularly came by to eat when we were closed to the public. We knew him well. I grew up in the resturant business all my life and worked for the best people on Beale Street. My idea is to put this plane on top of a restaurant and make it an attraction, and bar. I'd like to sell this idea to all parties involved and make this idea I have a reality, and in turn resurrect a historical resturant in honor of my Mama Lil. I know it's ambitious, but I can literally see it.

      If you want Jimmy, the owner would gladly sell it to you or anybody else for the $250;000 he paid for it and eat the $25,000 he spent to have it disassembled and readied for transport then trucked to Florida. Honestly I bet he’d take $200,000 just to be rid of the thing. It’s an albatross at this point, it can never legally fly in the USA again and would cost a minimum of 5.5 million to make it able to fly at all, which could only legally be done in airspace outside the USA, Canada, or any of the EU. Even to just restore it to a static display / museum piece would require gutting the entire interior (which is where Elvis actually sat) because it is a health hazard. You can’t clean rodent feces and urine from fabric or porous surfaces and it’s very hazardous to human health. I’m a fan of Jimmy (the owner)) because he saves old airplanes and fixes them up….this one was just too far gone. I do agree “chop shop” Bruce Wilson posting this was in bad taste though

    • @thetechgenie7374
      @thetechgenie7374 Před rokem +1

      That was the least of the problems as the newer revision of the engines to meet noise restrictions would have solve that issue. The reason why it never fly is “corrosion”, airframe is just to far gone and looking at 10 million plus to start, then the inspections and etc would kill the project before it start. Then added fact is going to be next to impossible to get the engines required to meet noise restrictions to fly and even start.
