    The best part of being obsessive-with-means is to be able to realize the obsession!

    When we were kids, we had the fantasy of creating the most elaborate HotWheels race course possible... ah, $50K would be about right for that project! #panamrecreation

    "Man Spends $50,000 to Recreate a First-Class Pan Am Cabin in His Garage"... and then?

    I understand some people like to spend money making a realistic flight simulator cabin in their home, makes sense, you want to have the feeling that you are flying a real plane.

    But spending all this time, money and effort just to recreate the cabin area?

    Then what?

    "Welcome Home! Priced to sell, this 4 br. / 3 bth. 1970's ranch style home has it all. Granite countertops, recessed lighting, stainless steel appliances, spacious overhead compartments, tray tables locked and seats in their upright poisition - too much to list. Security system includes drop-down oxygen masks, seat cushions that may be used at flotation devices, and emergency exits located at the forward, mid and rear sections of the cabin. Must see to fully appreciate." #panamrecreation

    He appears to be sitting in a suspiciously wide isle.

    @NTIV10: You mean the staircase that ends in a wall? The staircase with the oddly Home Depot-looking lighting? While I am not sure the isle is actually too wide, I am more sure that staircase is fake. #panamrecreation

    @The Lab: well, yes... but what i meant was that the staircase indicated a 747 first class cabin, which did actually have aisles that wide #panamrecreation

    He probably spends a lot of time sleeping in the garage too.

    I wonder if his fetish extends to the bedroom and he asks his wife to dress up as a stewardess and call him 'Captain'....

    I remember flying British Airways circa 1983 and we got bumped up to the World Club (or whatever it was called) cabin upstairs on the 747 - I thought I had gone to heaven. I really appreciate the economy of today's carriers, but we have lost a lot of the magic of jet travel. Some of the Asian and Gulf airlines try to keep the magic alive, but it's still not quit the same. #panamrecreation

    All I want to know is what this guy does for a living.

    Damn bourgeoisie. Always ruining my day. What with your "I have 50,oo0 bucks to waste on something as stupid as recreating a dumb ol' Pan Am airplane in which I spent hours cramped and in sexual arousal from all the hot old school flight attendants."

    Mmmm. #panamrecreation

    @i_pooped_on_: Don't assume. You never know what the guy's given up to pay for this. I see folks driving around in $50K luxury sedans around here; I just assume that they have no kind of insurance whatsoever because all their money has to be going into the wheels. #panamrecreation

    People who spend money on ridiculous stuff like this make me angry. In this case it is partially because I've never flown first class, but mostly because that money would pay off my student loans. JUST GIVE ME THE MONEY!!!! It would be put to better use. #panamrecreation
