	Braniff International Airways - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Braniff International’s history can be traced back to 1928, when an insurance salesman and financier named Thomas E. Braniff financed an aviation company with his brother Paul Revere Braniff.
		In 1959, Braniff entered the jet age with the introduction of the Boeing 707-227.
		Harding viewed Braniff as a "backwater" airline—despite the facts that the airline had routes from North Dakota to Argentina, and was already the 11th-largest airline in the world—and sought to re-image Braniff into his "vision".
