It is not an ordinary aircraft but a restaurant & bar. The plane itself became popular long before the transformation, however. In 1986 it was transporting weapons from the USA to the Nicaragua smugglers but was brought down. The plane was left on the Costa-Rica coast where the locals transformed into the “El Avion” restaurant.

I have eaten at that restaurant! One of the greatest weekends of my life was spent in that region of Costa Rica.
They have some of the best lobster bisque I’ve ever had. Great food and their Monkey Juice is quite tasty!
That looks absolutely amazing. I need to start vacationing someplace cool, I’d LOVE to eat there
