I would just like to point out how much people buy Pan Am and TWA brand merchandise despite how long the airlines have been dead. $12000 and the ability to negotiate a good licensing deal makes that a steal.

"Don't fret, Son, I bought you an entire airline!"

(Family goes broke, show up to airport expecting planes, only find signs and branding)

When Cyprus Airways went down, the Cypriot government sold the brand for €10k/year for 10 years to S7 who now operate in Cyprus under the “Cyprus Airways” brand!

@mowago. Adreea Airlines is no Pan Am or TWA. Or is it Adrea Air? I forgot the name of this airline already. Anyway this branding has as much value as a used Snickers wrapper
