NASA seizes new Opportunity after losing its Spirit on Mars

[Tom Mosher]

Braniff II, eh? I don't have much from that era - but I would
imagine that since most of the 727-227 fleet belonged to Braniff I,
the manuals I have are probably just earlier versions of what you're
familiar with.

Almost our entire 727 fleet was original Braniff I aircraft. Sort of
funny that we managed to get some of the fleet back. Made it a hell of a
lot easier on maintenance and pilot training.

The weird part of Braniff II was the Florida Express fleet of BAC 1-11's
that we inherited. Some were also original Braniff I aircraft that were
disposed of years earlier.

Braniff III (DFW based) also used old Braniff I aircraft. Mercifully,
that airline had a short life.
