Default Braniff hub?

I was thinking of making my airport a Braniff hub. Gimme some DC-8's and some Ultra 727's and I'm on my way!

Oh, one thing guys, never let your wife see you got more than one of the same model! I got clubbed when she saw these. You know what.....it was worth it and I want more!

! I understand the need to collect multiple models (for hubs, etc) but looking at the attatched pic (your wife's point-of-view?), I can really see how silly it is to have the same planes.

Tell her its for decorating the X-Mas tree.

Becareful, DeltaKP.

Smile That's no hub!!

That's no hub its the whole fleet!! jajajaaja!
Must be one of those dreaded one day strikes!
I believe us "airport" oriented collectors are the manufacturers best friends, who else would NEED to get many multiples of MANY models!
I recommend it be considered heresy to talk about these planes as Christmas treee ornaments!

Default Braniff 707's

Now it looks like you have several of each of the Jet-X and Gemini 727''s. And now that Gemini is coming out with nine different 707's , how many do you intend to get?

Impressive collection, but take care with how much money you spend on Braniff models...remember what happened to Braniff.

Aloha, Chris

That's an impressive jelly bean airforce you've built! I like Braniff also. You can never have too much of a good thing!
