It's just one notch below the Winnebago Heli Home :-) https://www.thedrive.com/news/34753/the-winnebago-heli-home-was-a-real-flying-rv-that-needs-to-make-a-comeback-in-2020 https://www.thedrive.com/news/34753/the-winnebago-heli-home-... I didn't realize there were so many AN-2's for sale: looks like going rate is about $100k for a piston or $2m for a turbine. https://www.planecheck.com/?ent=ap&man=antonov&des=an2&type=&grp=an-2&id=0 https://www.planecheck.com/?ent=ap&man=antonov&des=an2&type=... edit, I guess you need that turbine to lug all the extra weight from the furnishings and floats around with enough Vx to get out of short mountain lakes with a little density altitude.

Holy Toledo. The Winnebago Heli Home is the most 1970s thing I have seen since the CRT thread. How much more energy can we consume in doing a typical recreational activity.

The turbine version going for $2.4m is in fact the plane from the article OP shared. So that's what they are looking to get for their version. https://www.planecheck.com/?ent=ap&man=antonov&des=an2&type=&grp=an-2&id=0 https://www.planecheck.com/?ent=ap&man=antonov&des=an2&type=...

The Heli Home is extravagant. I'm a man of modest needs; I'd be happy enough with an MD500E, a Jetboil and a swag. https://murchisonriverswags.com.au/products/stockmans-swag https://murchisonriverswags.com.au/products/stockmans-swag
