The famous "Penndel Airplane," a 1954 Lockheed Super G Constellation airliner parked on top of Flannery's Restaurant on Route 1 in Penndel, PA.
The plane's interior was left intact, and served as a cocktail lounge and rented for parties.
It eventually closed when it fell into disrepair, and today a gas station stands on the corner where this unusual landmark once rested.
Some reports state that the "Penndel Airplane" was relocated to the Air Mobility Command Museum at Dover AFB in Delaware.
This video was recorded by Karl Gober the night before the "Penndel Airplane" was scheduled to be removed.

My Grandparents used to own that place for a little while when it was called Amelia's after Amelia Earhart. It had to be in the early 80's - my grand father died in 1984 and they did not own it at that time.

I showed this to a friend who is not a Bucks County native like me, and he said, "WTF, PA is so weird." I said, "Yes, but so was the whole Lincoln Highway."
