Default Got a postcard offering to buy my plane...

I got a postcard that says that if my plane is for sale they'll
buy it for cash right now!!!

Also, if I want to *buy* a plane they are constantly getting new
inventory!

Yeah, that's just the sort of inventory I'm looking for... Instead
of buying a plane indiscriminately for cash *directly* I can do it
through a middle man.

That's nothing.

I just got a secret offer via email that's going to net me 15% of 25
million bucks just for letting the desperate widow of an African
politician use my bank account to transfer some funds! Pretty soon I'll
be waving at all you guys from my new Bonanza!

Those postcards must work for him. Every plane owner in the country gets a
couple of postcards a year from Barron Thomas.

Thomas also advertises heavily in Trade-a-Plane.
