Default F-15 Boarding Ladder

Is it legal to sell and buy one of these things?

If legal, what is a good price for it?

Which ladder, primary (the one that hangs on the side) or secondary (the one that fits into the fuselage)?

Why would anyone want one?

You boys are too funny!

The ladder I'm looking at is one that is put against the plane when it's parked. I'm interested in it to use in the garage to reach stuff in the rafters or put it against our truck when washing it or loading it.

Having said all that, however, Mr. vagabond is shaking his head and saying no, no way he's allowing such a contraption in the house when we have 4 ladders already.

Yeah, that ladder is taller than most people think. Your head may be against the ceiling
