It was supposedly to be the Great Pickle, overall green. Bob ^,,^ Thanks for that picture of Big Orange! I knew someone on here would have one. As for the the Great Pickle......I heard something to that effect. I'm not 100% certain....but a recently published magazine special on Braniff may even have a photo. I'm going to have a look and if I find it, scan and post it here. Another Braniff 747, begged/bought/borrowed from American. Not quite as impressive as the first one... Can't find the slide now, but they also had an orange 747SP. Bob ^,,^ |
