Take a look at three of the most unusual houses in the country. First, In Clarksville, Tenn., a commercial airline pilot and his aircraft mechanic wife show off their house that looks remarkably like an airplane terminal. It comes complete with attached airplane hangar, media room with rows of real airline seats, inflatable life vests under the seats, and a runway in the back. Next, in Houston, a pain-management doctor discusses his four-acre backyard tropical oasis that features huge waterfalls and a mountain with secret chambers underneath it. Then, after a family's house in San Diego burns to the ground, they decide to have architect Heather Johnston design them a fireproof ultramodern place.
